Dustin Haefele-Tschanz

Dustin is a Software Engineer at Spreedly who loves a good pun and riding his bike over bridges because the unabridged version is too long. In a previous life he was a Chemical engineer, but over the years he grew unhappy with factory work.

His passion for researching everything he could find about human happiness led him to quit his job, join a bootcamp, spend a few months exploring South America, and finally jump into Software Engineering full time. Dustin calls Athens, GA home, but loves to travel whenever he can.

The Pursuit of Happiness

Who in this world would say "no" to being a little happier? Luckily for us there has been a lot of wonderful scientific studies done on human happiness. This talk will cover a number of my favorite studies in this field, and how they can be applied to life and careers in tech.
