2000

Hi everyone. Hope this spring season finds you well—summer cannot come fast enough! Aarathi Sambasivan will be graduating from the University of Chicago Graduate School of Business in the fall, along with Brian Home and Tim Kitchen. "I bump into Cabray Haines every once in a while. The next big move for me is London, where I'll be working for Lehman starting in August."

Ryan Padilla wrote in: "Andy Thompson and I met up in Hawaii, of all places, at the end of February. I was working in Honolulu for a month on a consulting assignment and Andy conveniently had an opportunity to present some of his doctoral research at a weeklong oceanic sciences conference. Fortunately, it wasn't all work and no play. We both managed to break free from our schedules for a snorkeling adventure in Hanauma Bay. We swam with some amazing exotic fish and even had a few curious sea turtles come our way. We also braved a torrential downpour a few days later while hiking in the valley next to where Jurassic Park was filmed. I think the rain scared off T-rex."

Ryan apparently became a local celebrity for a day as well. He entered the 8-mile Great Aloha Run at the last minute and beat 18,000 Hawaiians to the finish line for the win. In yet another episode of random Dartmouth encounters, Ryan said he walked into an Irish Bar one weekend while in Honolulu and immediately crossed paths with Sunny Bowles. "We couldn't help but laugh at the freakish coincidence. It was great to see her and we caught up again later in the week to reminisce about the good 01' days in Hanover." I want to know where you can sign up for the consulting job in Hawaii.

Heather Huffman is deep in the trenches of residency in emergency medicine in Los Angeles but has exciting news to share, which she promises is "even more exciting than the eraser I pulled out of my 3-year-old patients ear last night! I'm getting married! The groom-to-be is a great chap (and lawyer—amazing!) named Philip Dracht (Calvin 1997, University of Michigan Law200i). We will be married at the Santa Barbara Mission in Santa Barbara, California, on Sunday, May 28, then on to an exciting honeymoon, which the groom has so mischievously kept a surprise." Congratulations, Heather!

Also, in wedding news, Jennifer Dziura married comedian Lord Carrett at rock club CBGB's on April 23. After the wedding the two embarked on a comedy tour of the East Coast and Midwest. Congratulations!
