’82 Andrea Learned, based in Seattle, recently joined the Social Voice Branding alliance as Senior Social Strategist. She continues to write, speak and share on Twitter and Google+ on the topic of sustainable business leadership. She authored an article in the Oct. 23rd issue of The Guardian called “Where Are the Women Leaders in Sustainable Business?” Page Vincent writes, “I was married in May 2013 to Arthur Gosnell. We just moved back into our house in North Salem, N.Y., after a fire. I am placement director for Rippowam Cisqua School, which means I have the happy task of recommending Choate to my students and their families. I have three daughters, Dorothy in grade 7, Hope, a junior at Cornell, and Missy, a senior at Tulane, also three stepsons and a stepdaughter. So sorry to miss the upcoming Class of ’82 50th birthday, but I will be attending my daughter’s college graduation that weekend.” ’83 Cammie Phillips Hunt writes, “It was great to be back on campus for our 30th in May! At the Alumni Fun Run, I met Heather Chichester Pettis ’93. It was a great connection to make, as we live in nearby towns and have seen each other at several local road racing events. Speaking of which, this year has been one of my most successful years on the Road Race/ Triathlon scene. I’ve landed on the Age Group podium six times, and took home the award for top local female finisher at the Pumpkinman Half-Iron TRI, finishing in a time of 6:20:32.” James D. Reardon writes, “My wife, Heather, and I spent a weekend in New Orleans. Dan Feibus hosted us in his box at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium to watch the Saints defeat the Cowboys in November. Dan is busy with a new project in Louisiana and traveling often. Dan spoke highly of his memories of Zack and Julie Goodyear while he was at Choate.”

Josh Futterman writes that his company, International Skill Verification Services (www.skillverification.net), will have its public launch in January. “We are a groundbreaking, new, interview-based college admissions assessment process that is heading towards joining the TOEFL, GMAT, SAT and other exams as a new standard in international student admissions, and eventually in domestic admissions,” he writes. Jeff Hamond ended his 12 years as a senior Senate staffer in late 2011 and has been building a government relations practice focused on philanthropy at Van Scoyoc Associates, a well-known Washington lobbying firm. Michael Mullin is the author of TaleSpins, a collection of three alternative fairytale retellings for YA readers. Scott Weinhold writes, “I’ve just started a tour as the Consul General at the U.S. Consulate General in Shenyang, China. It’s a three-year posting, and I welcome any Choate alums who are in the NE China area to come by and say hello,” he writes.
