Class Note 2019
Issue
September-October 2021
Hey, ’19s!
Although I’m writing this column at the end of June, I hope you’re having a great start to your fall and that you had a great summer! I am so impressed by the amazing things that ’19s have been up to in the past year. Also, as we welcome a return back to normalcy, it has been so great to start hearing about in-person reunions and gatherings once again.
First, one of our classmates, Isalys “Ice” Quiñones, went to the Tokyo Summer Olympics as a member of the Puerto Rican women’s national basketball team. If you haven’t read the feature on Ice in the last issue of Dartmouth Alumni Magazine yet, definitely check it out!
After a year in San Diego, Emily Dryden is moving to Atlanta to finally work in-person at QNOPY, an environmental technology startup where she also works with Ice Quiñones. In Atlanta she’ll be living with Alexa Lewis ’18, Robb Nikolai, Th’19, Erin Connolly ’18, and Christian Williams. There will definitely be many pong games in their house!
In June Daniel Lein, Tony DiPadova, and Alec Pelton completed the Ironman 70.3 Eagleman in Cambridge, Maryland. Brian Schoenfeld traveled to cheer Dan, Tony, and Alec on! In case you didn’t know what this race involved, it’s a 1.2-mile swim, 56-mile bike ride, and 13.1-mile run! Huge kudos to the group for accomplishing such a difficult race!
Trevor Colby, Jackie Perron-Smith, Maria Garmin, Alec Eschholz, and Sam Siegel are doing their best to take advantage of all that California has to offer this summer. Next up in their adventures, they are bringing Jackie’s adorable puppy Ellie to the Stanislaus National Forest for a backpacking trip. They are excited to explore the Emigrant Wilderness and are planning on camping out on some of the alpine lakes in the region.
Tara Burchmore wrote in to provide job updates on two classmates. Tara wanted to congratulate both, writing, “Congratulations to Regan Gore on starting her job at Eniac Ventures! She is going to do such an amazing job in venture capital. Also, Madison Minsk is starting a private equity job at the Carlyle Group in Washington, D.C.”
Thanks so much to all who shared. As always, if you have any class notes to share, please send them to dartmouth2019classnotes@gmail.com, reach out on the class Instagram, or contact me directly.
