Hi, ’13s, Svati Narula here taking over as class secretary.
I’d like to introduce the other members of our new executive board: head agents Jackie Donohoe and Colin S. Harris, alumni councilor Jay Webster, treasurer Katherine Lindzey, vice president Yon-sue Choi, and president Ashley Afranie-Sakyi.
Here is a note from Ashley: “Hi, class of 2013. Writing to you from the heart of charming Clinton Hill, N.Y.C.! Proud to step into the shoes of class president for our class of 2013 executive council. Ready to collaborate with this fantastic team and connect with our awesome class. Beyond the presidential duties, life in New York is an ever-changing adventure. Whether I’m running Dungeons & Dragons one-shots, queer country line dancing, or enjoying open streets on Vanderbilt Avenue, there’s always something brewing. Professionally, I’m a year into my role as team lead at a payments company, occasionally jetting off to Amsterdam—which, while lovely, doesn’t compare to New Amsterdam. With spring around the corner, let’s catch up. Share your thoughts on class events, what you’d like from the exec council, or just to catch up. Warm regards, Ashley Afranie-Sakyi, your class president.”
And a few updates from the rest of us: Jackie lives in London and works at film company Maven Screen Media. Colin lives in Alexandria, Virginia, with his wife, Calynn, and their 3-year-old daughter, Audrey. He is a litigator in the Washington, D.C., office of Morgan, Lewis & Bockius LLP. Katherine finished her M.B.A. at the University of Texas McCombs School of Business in May and is now in Bentonville, Arkansas, for Walmart’s finance leadership development program. Currently, she is on the energy transformation finance team evaluating proposed solar and storage projects, as well as community electric-vehicle chargers, to power Walmart’s 2040 zero-emissions targets. As for me, I’m still working remotely for Dartmouth as the digital editor of this magazine.
