Hi there, Austin Lewis here from Los Angeles. Jaime Padgett asked me to guest write this edition of Class Notes. I jumped at the chance to take a break from my never-ending game of online Scrabble (coronavirus has made my life infinitely more interesting) to share news and updates from our class. Stay safe, everyone!

Yasemin Elci moved from Istanbul, Turkey, to Luxembourg last year with her husband. Yasemin works as an art writer and hosts a radio show about art. She also is an art consultant on independent projects. Elci says Luxembourg reminds her of Dartmouth a lot because there are more trees than people. She and her husband often go hiking in the woods.

Katherine Kalaris is starting a doctor of philosophy program in evidence-based healthcare at Oxford University in Oxford, England, this fall. She will study clinical and operational interventions to improve neonatal outcomes in Kenya.

Amanda Greenberg and her husband, Noah, welcomed a second baby boy on April 2. His name is Range Morris Greenberg. He’s cute and cuddly and has a message for you—wear a mask so he can meet his grandparents soon. Congratulations, Amanda!

Beata Lobel married Daniel Scholfield in a tiny, socially distant wedding in Hartford, Connecticut, on June 21. Cara Foster Karim was at the small ceremony. Beata and Daniel combined their names and now answer to “Dr. and Mr. Belfield.” The newlyweds plan to move to Syracuse, New York, this fall. Any ’07s in Syracuse? If so, please reach out to Beata. Beata will start her work as a minimally invasive general surgeon at St. Joseph’s Hospital.

Jaime here. That was fun, right? As I have been your class secretary for more than three years now(!), I thought you may enjoy hearing from some new voices. Interested in guest writing? Let me know! And, as always, we all hope to hear from you soon!
