Hello, ’06s! I hope this finds you well!


Mike Rosenzweig just finished a year in Hanover working at a startup biotech company and in January moved to San Francisco. AllMyDealsAreLive.com (AMDAL), the blog he founded in 2007 “as a way for all our Dartmouth friends to stay connected,” recently received its 100,000th hit. Mike and Scott Linthicum ’04 edit the site, which contributor Matt Weiss describes as featuring “a breadth of commentary on topics from politics, media and sports to technology, travel and food; all written up, of course, with a certain sense of sophisticated (and not so sophisticated) humor.” Other contributors include Mike Block ’04, Will Hiltz ’05, Alex Cavin, Rob Cowden, Charlotte Lord, Brian Martin, Chris Allen ’07, Brian Christie ’07, Allan Reynolds ’07, Rembert Browne ’09 and Caitlin Kelly ’09. Alex is living in Boston, working as a healthcare consultant at Trinity Partners and he competes in triathlons and club soccer. Rob is at Johns Hopkins University, pursuing a master’s in international relations. Charlotte works at Gap Inc., merchandising baby clothes for the international market. She recently became engaged to Nic Chu. Brian is finishing up his third year at Vermont Law School. Brian worked at the Vermont Federal District Court over the summer and is currently interviewing for full-time positions throughout the Northeast. Congratulations to you all on the success of AMDAL!

Having completed her Fulbright research, Christina is currently preparing for publication a series of comparative analyses that outline the geopolitical and social implications of contemporary Russian and Central Asian gender-based violence advocacy, education reform and community outreach. Today Christina serves as an assistant professor of sociology at the American University of Central Asia and as a regional expert for UNIFEM in Dushanbe, Tajikistan, where she consults on the organization and implementation of a pilot program to address issues of women’s personal safety and economic security in marketplaces and at cross-border points throughout Central Asia. 


I look forward to hearing what you’re up to!
