The Power of Teleworking

Who would have ever imagined being employed in one state and living in another. Welcome to the life of Andrew Hayman, a DC resident and Senior Research Analyst at Hezel Associates based out of Syracuse, New York. He lives almost 400 miles (close to six hours) away from his employer. Hezel Associates specializes in evaluation, research, and planning.  When asked about his work situation he shared that "the commute is pretty easy, and working remotely in DC allows our company to better serve our clients in the region." His role of leading multiple K-12, higher education, STEM, and workforce development evaluations really brings him job gratification. Since evaluation is a core part of what he does every day, this position allows him to explore new innovative approaches to evaluation depending on the needs of Hezel's partners and demands of the company’s growing health and human resources portfolio.

When asked about becoming a member of Washington Evaluators one year ago, Andrew stated that he "wanted to meet people locally who were in the same profession and also to learn more about evaluation needs in the nation’s center of power. I moved from Syracuse 2 years ago and heard WE was a great group to join. It has been a lot of fun attending events and the networks I am developing will serve me in my future career."

In his spare time, this Syracuse University graduate walking his dog on the four-mile run trail in Arlington. If you want to know more about the "Teleworking Chronicles," connect with Andrew at andrew@hezel.com or follow him on Twitter on @AHayman23.
