Fingers crossed that I’ll be able to go to Brazil in the near future to witness testing!! I also moved to West Hartford with two friends and am enjoying all that it has to offer. All is well in the Soobitsky corner!!”

Baird Bream: “In August, Kelsey London Robbins and I got married at the Peabody Essex Museum in Salem, MA. Though we live in Chicago now, we’re both natives of Massachusetts, and we were thrilled to be back in the Bay State for our wedding. In attendance were over a dozen Bancroft alums from the Classes of 2006 through 2009—and one current Bancroft teacher, Kim VanderSpek. I was honored to have Will Chilton, Brendan “Cava” Conuel, Nate Erskine, and Gabe Drapos ’08 stand with me as Kelsey walked down the aisle.”

Tiffany Soobitsky: “Hi all! Upon graduating with my Bachelor’s in Mechanical Engineering in May from UConn, I celebrated my accomplishments with an extensive trip to Europe, visiting 7 countries and 12 cities in 5.5 weeks (the best trip of my life). I’ve since started my full time job at Pratt & Whitney in East Hartford, CT, working in their Nacelle & Engine Integration department. My role as an integration engineer includes managing nacelle test failure resolutions that I present to my department and the customer, and coordinating certification documents per Pratt & Whitney, US government, customer and the customer’s government regulations. I will also hopefully get to witness certification tests, which take place in places ranging from California, Montreal, Florida, Brazil and right here in Connecticut. My assigned projects are with the aircraft company Embraer, based in Brazil, and Bombardier in Canada, who is purchasing Pratt & Whitney’s new PurePower geared turbofan jet engine! It’s their new engine that is 45% quieter and 15% more fuel efficient than anything on the market right now. I’m ecstatic that I’m working on the most sustainable jet engine on the market!! (as sustainable energy and travel are my passions!)

Guillermo Creamer: “I traveled to London and Barcelona and met up with some Bancroft classmates. Above, Hannah Reisinger, Meg Fortier, and Calla Simeone in London, and below, Hannah and I visited Molly Shea in Park Guell that overlooks Barcelona.”

Jimmy Kelley ’09, Meredith Crawford ’06, Curtis Reid ’06, Callie Lekas ’06, and Sarah Kelley ’10 joined other Bancroft alums at the Boston gathering in November. (Photobomb-Mr. A.) Jimmy Kelley: “I’m in my second year at Rivers School and have added the role of advisor to my communications/development duties. Also coached middle school lacrosse last spring and looking forward to the upcoming season.”
