Class Note 2010
Issue
September-October 2022
Many happy updates from our classmates in this column! Jasmine Richards married Jamie Lonie on April 30 in Lafayette, Louisiana. “Nicole Davis, Jessica Guthrie, and Deborah Osborne were wonderful bridesmaids. Fellow ’10s Ijeoma Chinwuba, Harmony Gbe, Hamadi Henderson, Lou-Lou Igbokwe, Alexis Joynes, Deja Kemp, and Daria Waite kept the dance floor lit all night. Emmanuel Mensah and Marissa Alert more than held it down for the ’09s. It was a lovely day and I’m so grateful some of my closest friends from Dartmouth were able to with celebrate us!”
Eliza Varner: “My husband, Ben Arancibia, and I just welcomed our second child, Liliana, earlier in June. She joins big brother Miles.”
Conor Grogan writes: “I’m in Westport, Connecticut, with my wife, Jackie, and sons Clark (3.5) and Henry (1.5). Just wanted to tell the class that we should all make it a point to crash summer reunions next year and celebrate our 10-year reunion (which was unjustly taken away from us). See you all there!”
On June 19 Emily Mirengoff married Srikanth Damera (Columbia ’12) on the most gorgeous, non-humid June day in recent D.C. history. The Dartmouth contingent came out strong, including Aurora Coon and Rene Zelaya ’11, Meghan McDavid and Ed Chien ’09, Dana Daugherty and Alex Lloyd, and Tess McLoud.
Katie Porter (now Roberts) happily announces her marriage to Sam Roberts on June 11. Many Dartmouth ’10s were in attendance to celebrate with them!
Benjamin Jones is starting business school at Tuck this fall.
Kathy Oprea and John Schroeder moved to Portsmouth, New Hampshire, with their son, Theo. They are looking forward to exploring the seacoast and would love to meet up with other alums in the area.
Though they were bummed to be leaving Greg Sokol and his family in Boston, Abbe (Sokol) Cart and James Cart were excited to move back to N.Y.C. this summer. Abbe is continuing in her role as head of corporate strategy at Newsela, while James is starting a new position as a university and academic advisor at EF Academy in Thornwood.
Finally, a joke update from Jake Routhier. Our classmate Jon Carty has decided to release a docuseries of his upcoming road trip from Nashville to L.A. in which he visits historic places in pop-country music history. The show will be called Carty in the USA. Ba dum tss!
Be well, ’10s.
