View All Notes for Class of 1998Dear ’98s! Gabi Sarhos shared an update: “In preparation for this year’s rounds of the admission ambassador program I found myself on a refresher interviewing webinar with Kathryn Fernandez and about 20 other alumni from all over the world. Kathryn, located in Denver, emailed me right after, and we both can’t believe that our 25th reunion was almost two years ago already. Kathryn and I are excited to serve as ambassadors on behalf of Dartmouth admissions. In other news, my husband, Max Royzen, and I still live in New York’s capital, Albany; Max is assistant professor of chemistry at SUNY Albany and I am an architectural designer and project manager. Lazar Dimitrov recently reached out via email to share that he and his company Bright Peak Therapeutics secured Series C funding for immunotherapies for oncology applications.” Thanks, Gabi and Kathyrn, for contributing your time to help the College select the next generation of Big Greeners!
