Smashing the Stigma

My guest today is Hale Pulsifer and he’s been sober since January of 2021. Hale works for Fidelity Investments and is the co-leader for the Office of Customer Accessibility (CIT) so he’s a disability advocate. In this role, Hale works to optimize customer interactions for people with disabilities by ensuring that accessibility is a design principle in everything they do at Fidelity. 

The CIT advocates for inclusive design in all Fidelity interactions for the benefit of under-represented customers based on disability, race, and sexual/gender identity.

Prior to leading the Office of Customer Accessibility, Hale served in multiple finance and strategy roles at Fidelity for over 15 years while raising a family. In addition, Hale is the former national co-chair of the Fidelity Enable Employee Resource Group for associates affected by disabilities.

Hale is passionate about helping to Smash the Stigmas of substance abuse disorder and mental illness.
