Class Note 1999

Hello, ’99s!


Another reunion—our 15th!—is behind us and our Dartmouth family continues to grow and do great things. Babies have grown into teenagers who, in just a few years, may themselves be Dartmouth students. Many of us are also leaving our mark in the world, running companies, saving lives and serving others. I hope those of you who made it to reunion made the most of it and I hope to join you next time! There isn’t too much news to report in this column but the news we have is good.


First, Noreen Nilan Pfadenhauer and husband James Pfadenhauer ’00 welcomed daughter Katherine (Kate) Elizabeth Pfadenhauer into the world on September 30, 2012. Kate will learn the ropes of family life with help from her big sister Caroline, age 7. Congratulations, Noreen and James!


In other news Adam Bulbulia wrote that he started a new company, Bridging World Behavioral Services, to help the families of people who have a diagnosis of autism or developmental delays. Bridging Worlds provides support in Sonoma and Mendocino County in California. Adam is just hiring his first employee at the time of writing this and he is looking for more people to help. If you are in the area and want to learn more, let Adam know! Adam can be reached by e-mail at bridgingworldsbs@gmail.com or by phone at (707) 391-6400.


Finally, Jeff Steeves took a new role as vice president of marketing for wayfair.com, an online retailer of home products and furnishing. Since joining Wayfair in 2009, Jeff has played a leading role in expanding the company’s customer base and looks forward to building on this work through his new role. 


That’s all the updates for now. Enjoy the rest of the summer and I look forward to sharing more news with you soon!
