It has been a refreshing change! He is a photographer, and I stayed on at my job at Springer Science + Business Media (working remotely from home) as account specialist for academic and government sales in Latin America and the Caribbean. I am writing this from the airport on my way to Venezuela to give a presentation for work. I recently met up for brunch with Leah Freeman, Alex Delvecchio and Ian Lovett. A fun little SoCal Nobles reunion!” Billy Duffey writes, “In August, I traveled to California to attend the wedding of Heather Summe Aleksinas to Matthew Aleksinas (Taft ’02) at the Santa Lucia Preserve in Carmel Valley. In addition to bridesmaids Margaret Gormley Donahue, Erin Summe, Susanna Phillips Fogarty and Margot Lynn Davis, the wedding was attended by the following Nobles graduates: Christine Kistner, Courtney Weinblatt,
Samantha Strauss, Megan Markey, Cece Wedel, Tara Ryan ’04 and Ryan Summe ’06.”

Saul Gorman 617-447-3444 saul.gorman@gmail.com Devin Nwanagu writes, “This summer was definitely an eventful one. I kicked off the summer with a career switch from finance to private development at Nobles as the capital campaign coordinator. This comes after my completion of the Boston University professional fundraising certificate course. Applying my education with the

experience I am learning is just amazing. On top of that, I was one of the assistant coaches for the girls’ varsity soccer team, coaching alongside my best friend, teammate and newlywed, Amy Joyce McBrien ’03. Hard to believe our 10-year reunion is right around the corner (we are old) but definitely looking forward to helping plan it.” Alec Phillips writes, “I moved to San Francisco because I wanted to recycle more and become one with Mother Nature. I also enjoy paying obscene amounts for rent.” Brittany Oliver writes, “My boyfriend of three years proposed in April, and we’re getting married in Boston on May 31. He’s also a USC graduate and a Los Angeles native. We’ve had quite a few trips back to Boston now, and he’s really starting to grow fond of the East Coast, but we will most likely continue to reside in Manhattan Beach, Calif., after we’re married.” Anne Benjamin writes, “I’m writing from Baku, Azerbaijan. I’m still enjoying my position as a costof-living surveyor, making the most of this opportunity to see the world and getting paid for it. I’ve now been to over 50 countries.”

Fans of extreme music can find Caroline Harrison’s art on the cover of avant-garde, technical death metal quartet Pyrrhon’s sophomore release, out in the beginning of 2014 by Relapse Records. Enterprising individuals can even buy it on vinyl. Most of the time you can find her working (day job), photographing (fun employment job), drawing (future job?), and wishing she had a time-turner. Yep, she’s still a big honking nerd. Alex Gardiner is finally pursuing her dream of becoming a teacher and is in the process of working on a master’s degree in special and general education at Bank Street Graduate School of Education.
