Class Note 2001
Issue
September-October 2020
Hello, ’01 family. As I write this in June, I truly have no idea what September will be looking like. Wherever you are, whatever you are doing, I hope that you and yours are healthy, safe, and enjoying each other’s company. Even though everyone is still pretty cooped up in late June, our ’01 family remains busy. Chance Hill is enjoying his time as one of nine elected University of Colorado regents overseeing the college system. He got married in December, and he and his wife, Nicole, were able to honeymoon in Jamaica before the lockdowns. If you are looking for something to read this fall, we have another class author in our midst. Aaron B. Wilkinson’s book, Blurring the Lines of Race and Freedom, will be published by the University of North Carolina Press this fall.
We have some ’01s taking on some new jobs. After 13 years at Nixon Peabody, Leah Threatte is now corporate counsel for AMRI, a research and manufacturing organization. Joe McKnight recently took a management role on Amgen’s cardiovascular marketing team and is looking to relocate to either Connecticut or California. Ricky Joshi cofounded Saatva, a luxury, direct-to-consumer mattress company that is one of the fastest growing e-commerce brands ever.
Kelly (Keene) Horst, her husband, Adam ’00, and their three children recently moved to Rochester, Minnesota, where the adults will take on roles at the Mayo Clinic. Kelly will join the faculty in the department of radiology. She was also recently recognized by the Indiana High School Cross Country Hall of Fame. Congratulations to all of these great ’01s!
