half, Stephane. They just celebrated Stephane’s graduations from Penn Law and Wharton with a J.D./M.B.A. Sarah is looking forward to traveling to France with Cari Whitney this spring and to being able to see her more often once Sarah moves to New York. Speaking of Cari, she recently passed the New York bar (her second, the first being Maryland) and was admitted in April. She lives with boyfriend/partner Evan List and her cats Pancake L. Whitney and Jemima Listney in Bushwick, Brooklyn, which she reports has the second-best chocolate chip cookie in NYC. Eli Bauman is also living in New York City, but he’s in the East Village. He’s working at a small investment group covering energy companies. Eli expressed his regrets that his update wouldn’t be super interesting because he doesn’t “have kids or live in Indonesia or anything cool like that.” I totally disagree and was really glad to hear from him.

Congrats are due to basically everyone who wrote in for this update and everyone else who I know has really cool stuff going on due to the above-mentioned recreational Facebook use but didn’t write in to share with the class! I hope to hear from more of you in the future, and if you didn’t get at least one email from me bugging you about notes, feel free to update your email address with Friends so I can get you next time.

at Friends. Hannah Stern has recently moved to London and is working on the global sales strategy for the pet care portfolio of Mars, Inc. The move enables her and her boyfriend, Henning, a German national, to be closer to his home. Liz Gilliams reports that she completed her internal medicine residency in Atlanta in June, and this summer she and her boyfriend Adam and dog Billie moved to Seattle to start an infectious disease. During past visits to Seattle, she was fortunate to have Jackie Small Parashar act as her unofficial Airbnb. After many years of study and training in Baltimore and Philadelphia, Danielle Waranch is living in Federal Hill and working as a dentist, which I could not be more excited about. Finally, I’m living in Baltimore with my newish husband Andrew and my cat Poppy (maybe one time we will have an update just for the cats of 2003), working as a law clerk for a

NYC classmate, has been living with his boyfriend Daniel for about a year, which he says is great. He has a new job in the bedding and home products industry as a designer with InDecor, a division of the Bentex Group. Gant was promoted really soon after starting full time and is now in charge of all design. They make bedding, bath, pet and other home products for a variety of stores, including Burlington, Bed Bath and Beyond and JCPenney. He says it’s a lot of fun and really exciting. Rachel Naumann also wrote to let me know that she’s been working at Connections Education, an online public school, for the past two years. Rachel and Greg Murphy were recently engaged while on a cruise in the Caribbean, and are planning a wedding for this November. You lifers may remember from our earliest years
