Class Note 2004
Merry summer, ’04s! It’s hard to believe that it’s been 15 years since we were gearing up for the start of our college lives up in Hanover. I remember spending the summer highlighting courses in the large paperback ORC, anxiously awaiting my new life in East Wheelock (out of all the applications, they took me?), and of course scrolling through the class of 2004 message boards scouting out new friends. While not much has changed in my life, it’s good to see that it’s changing in yours! Here are some updates.
Liz Fahrenbach recently launched North Branch Dermatology, LLC, on the northwest side of Chicago. So far the practice is off to a good start! She and her husband of almost five years bought their first home last summer and now live in Glenview, Illinois, with their 3-year-old daughter.
Caz Liske opened a new play Black & Simpson in Moscow. It’s based on Hector Black, the Tennessee man who forgave the killer of his daughters through a 14-year-long exchange of letters with him. Get ready, Western Hemisphere. After years in Russia Caz is coming back to America this summer—maybe for good!
J’amie Jones and Adam Ogusky moved from Taos, New Mexico, back to Austin, Texas, this past year. J’aime is continuing to work as an ER doctor and Adam has begun a Ph.D. program in urban planning.
Lauren Hendrickson recently became a partner in an equine ambulatory veterinary practice in central Maryland.
If you google Sam Stein and President Obama, you’re likely to find Sam’s awesome interview with POTUS. The job was mine, but Sam swooped in at the last second!
The last two years have been pretty exciting for James Lamb. He and his wife, Brianne (Ithaca College ’05), welcomed their first child, Audrey Elizabeth Lamb on August 3, 2013. After spending close to six wonderful years together in Boston’s North End from dating to marriage and through Audrey’s first year, the couple moved out to the western suburbs of Boston to a charming town called Westwood. They love the neighborhood and are excited to share that their flock (of lambs, get it?!) will be expanding by one in September!
In a last-minute submission Julian Kelly writes with a critical update: “2015 is off to a productive start. I have had two haircuts. The first occurred on February 21. The second was scheduled for April 11 but, due to a last-minute conflict, was moved to April 18. More to come in my next update. Stay tuned.”
Blair (Dickinson) Schroeder is the recipient of the 2015 Mary DeWitt Pettit Fellowship, which supports research performed by junior female physicians at Drexel University College of Medicine. With the grant she will be studying the practices of smoking cessation counseling for parents of hospitalized children performed by pediatric hospitalists.
May you all dream of Julian’s hair, medical research, POTUS, more lambs in the world and a 14-year prison pen pal. Keep the updates coming!
