Class Note 2006
Issue
January-February 2023
Hi, ’06s. I am writing you as the new class secretary. Other members of the class of 2006 leadership include Christine “Chrissy” Reinhold as class president, Julie (Fairchild) Fogarty as treasurer, Kaethe Henning as co-head agent, and Amanda Prentice as co-head agent.
Chrissy Reinholdlives in Coral Springs, Florida, with her family. On August 12 Chrissy married Valerian Soltes Jr. in Orlando, Florida. Their 2-year-old daughter, Maya Soltes (future Dartmouth class of 2041), was the flower girl. Chrissy and Valerian run a Salesforce and IT consulting company called EdgyBiz LLC, which Chrissy founded in 2019. She writes, “Thank you to the more than 150 class members and family who attended our reunion in June 2022. While the weather was colder than expected, dipping into the 40s, hearts were warmed by reuniting after five years and seeing many new faces at the meals and events. Our class is looking for volunteers to continue encouraging class connection. If you have an idea for a virtual class gathering or would like to be a presenter at one, we would love your involvement! Please email creinhold@gmail.com with details.”
Kaethe Henning joined Synapse Product Development as a director of business development in its Seattle office in September. Synapse, part of Capgemini Invent North America, provides engineering and product development consulting services. She would love to connect with classmates living in or visiting Seattle.
Amanda Prentice is happy to add another ’06 to her family. She shares that her sister, Hilary Prentice ’01, “saw the light and realized the best class is ’06—Hilary married our classmate Bart Blackburn on May 28.” Amanda also recently caught up with Sarah Givner, Cindy (Cao) Hustveit, Sara (Friesen) Press, and Phyllis Lee in New York City for Sarah Givner’s birthday celebration. “It was great to see old friends after a long period of not seeing friends during the last couple of years,” she writes.
Katie (Lang) Rotker became an assistant professor of urology at Yale University this summer. Most recently she served as vice chair of urology at the University of Massachusetts Medical School. She and her husband and their children are settling into life in Connecticut and would welcome connecting with other local Dartmouth alums.
Emily Nerland was recently appointed to head of global sales at NS1. Her role will focus on growing NS1’s global salesforce and partnership opportunities. Prior to NS1, Emily was managing director for Europe, the Middle East, and Asia at Masergy.
Classmates Nick Stork and Rich Walton cofounded the company Archaea Energy LLC, a renewable natural gas company. Nick now serves as the CEO and Rich as the president. In October the company was acquired by BP for approximately $4.1 billion.
I look forward to hearing from more of you in the coming months!
