July-August 2023
Hi, ’06s.
In January the Concord Monitor featured Brad Wolcott and his custom furniture and woodworking business. In addition to designing furniture, Brad teaches furniture making at the North Bennet Street School in Boston and recently became the manager of the New Hampshire Furniture Masters Exhibition gallery in the Concord (New Hampshire) Chamber of Commerce. Brad lives in Concord with his wife, Jillian Rork ’06, and their two children. You can find his work at www.bradwolcott.com.
Abigail Adams and her husband, Skander, live in Missoula, Montana, and welcomed their first son, Ansel, in July 2022. Abigail recently became chief operating officer of a startup called Paradis Sport, founded by fellow Dartmouth alum Sarah Weihman ’96, that makes performance underwear for athletes, designed by and for women, and all made in the United States.
Austin Lord finished his Ph.D. program in anthropology at Cornell University and is continuing his work on disaster and climate risk management as a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Toronto School of the Environment and as a fellow at the Stimson Center in Washington, D.C. Austin lives mostly in D.C. with his wife, Sneha, and their son, Alexander, who was born in early 2022.
Julie (Fairchild) Fogarty and her husband, Lant, welcomed daughter Clementine “Clemmie” Ann Fogarty on March 17, St. Patrick’s Day. Julie shares, “Naturally, green is already her favorite color. Clemmie joins big brother J.P. and her two fur siblings, Riley and Jackson. We are still living in Chicago—reach out if you’re ever in the area.”
Several ’06s returned to Hanover on April 15 for the annual men’s lacrosse alumni weekend, where they also celebrated the 20th anniversary of their Ivy League championship season in 2003 (our freshman year). In attendance were Brad Heritage, Jamie Coffin, Alec Hufnagel, Andrew Mayer, Dan Oberlin, Tom Pilla, Casey (Hazel) Nicholson with husband Matt ’05, Molly (Pierce) Daniels with husband Tom ’04, and Samantha (Lane) Gault with husband Mike ’03.
Samantha (Lane) Gault also shares, “I feel fortunate that the kids and I have also recently hit the beach with Kate (Berry) Grace, the ski slopes with Kate (Hufft) Kelly and Matt Kelly, the Essex [Connecticut] steam train with Katie (Lang) Rotker, and the theater with Devika Bodas ’15, former Greenwich Academy student and recent New Canaan Country School colleague.”
After working in fundraising for Dartmouth for the last 11 years, Alex Stein relocated from Hanover to Italy. She writes, “I am improving my Italian language skills, furthering my BunnyBear Quilts handmade gift line, and spending three days a week working at a bike shop on Lake Como. Come take a tour with me if you’re ever in northern Italy: www.bikeitbellagio.com.”
