Class Note 2006
Issue
May - Jun 2018
Hi, ’06s. I write this column after a President’s Day ski trip in Vermont and a drive that took us right through Hanover. We had missed Winter Carnival by just a week, but everything was still beautiful in the snow, and I am always proud to introduce others to the campus and relive our student days from many years ago.
There are just a few updates for this issue—a big thank you to all who write in and share and keep in touch through the Class Notes. Last fall Ali “Kat” Krzton was hired by Auburn University as the research data management librarian. She is currently piloting the library’s research data services. Yale Fillingham recently accepted a faculty position in the department of orthopedic surgery at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center. After he finishes his fellowship in hip and knee replacement surgery, Yale, his daughter and wife will be moving and are excited to make Hanover their permanent home at the end of the summer.
Tarunya Govindarajan married Adam Stepinski in September in Windsor, Vermont. A wide range of ’06s and Dartmouth alumni from other classes was in attendance. Lauren (Pfisterer) Shirley is working in northern Jersey as an emergency room physician. As of the column deadline in February, she was expecting her third child to add to her brood of two boys, Nathan and Landon, and two dogs.
Kwabena Safo-Agyekum is proud to announce the launch of Kwabs Dance Company (KDC), which will provide wellness through customized dance classes, choreography and performances. With a background in West African dance, ballet, contemporary, hip-hop, jazz, modern, Soca and stepping, KDC is a go-to dance resource to provide wellness classes to employees at companies around the country.
