Class Note 2003
Issue
May-June 2021
Greetings, ’03s! This column marks a full year of DAM columns submitted during the pandemic, certainly not a milestone I had hoped to mark. A heartfelt thanks to our many fellow ’03s who have been on the front lines of Covid since day one.
I heard from Sara Atwood Th’04, Th’05, who reports in that she was promoted to dean of the Elizabeth College School of Engineering, Math, and Computer Science in central Pennsylvania, where she is also a tenured associate professor of engineering. Sara and her husband, Greg Troszak (University of Wisconsin ’06), are parents to 2-year-old Tessa, who is keeping them busy with pandemic parenting. Both Sara and Greg earned Ph.D.s from UC Berkeley.
Kristin Weekley writes in to tell us that she and husband Tony are busy with children Harper (5) and Oliver (7), who are home from school during the pandemic. Despite the challenges of this year, Kristin had her best year ever with her real estate career and recently switched brokerages to Leading Edge Real Estate. She resides in the Boston area and encourages classmates to look her up, as she’d love to have walking partners.
Lots of babies to talk about this go around, as the ’03 family continues to grow!
Jessica Tam and Adam Colman ’05 welcomed baby Iris with a virtual Zoom shower filled with Dartmouth love from Vivian Lee-Huang, Jessica Sharkness, Jessica Adams, Jaime (Singley) Shatsman, Christina Buchter, Erica Duque, Christopher Chan, Eduardo Sebayan, Nikjil Bharadwaj, Tim Zeitler, Katie (Muse) Zeitler ’05, Sharon Lindenfeld ’05, Sharon (Lee) Kresge ’02 and Nathaniel Kresge ’02, Lily Lam ’02, Dara Lee Luca ’02, Sung Kim ’02, Kristen von Minden ’02, and Kristen’s 99-year-old crafty grandmother. I think that takes care of my mentioning-of-classmate-names quota!
Jill Haltigan shares the exciting news that she and her husband, Jason, adopted their son, Michael Sheldon John Crist, last March 20, just prior to the pandemic shutting everything down. She and Jason had been Michael’s foster parents since his birth.
Sara Baron and her husband, Kevin Nelson, announced the birth of their son, Isaiah Michael Baron, in May, with support from Hilary Alvarez.
Illona Lorincz and husband Martín Rodríguez welcomed their daughter, Magdalena Rodríguez Lorincz, in December.
