Kristen Faulkner cofounded a health-care startup last spring, aptly named Prevently, and worked on it full time this summer. The company has raised significant funding and signed several major contracts, so Kristen planned to take time off from Harvard this past fall to work on the company. In California for her brother’s graduation from Stanford, she spent time in the Bay Area, where several Andover alumni have taken up residence, including Chris Batchelder, Matt Appleby, Paul Donovan, and Yuto Watanabe. Batch designed and modeled for Chubbies this summer in San Francisco, hosting parties with Matt, Paul, and other Stanford and Berkeley folks—from sailing trips by the Golden Gate Bridge to grilling at Stanford. Matt continued to pursue product design in Palo Alto this summer, not too far from Kevin Song, who worked for eBay in San Jose. Matt, Batch, and KSong had a reunion in Palo Alto early in June to start the summer off right. Tim McLaughlin and Michael Berube ventured to the West Coast to visit Matt and another Andover alumnus pursuing tech: Wesley Cao, who’s working at the Dropbox headquarters in San Francisco. Back on the East Coast, Denzil Bernard had the opportunity to participate in the 2013 equity sales and trading class of interns at Credit Suisse. He joined a number of other alumni pursuing finance and other disciplines in New York. Mike MacKay is pursuing academics with his education startup, Pegasus, operating from Columbia University. When he isn’t working or taking classes, you can find him at home in Massachusetts with Austen Novis or procrastinating at key times in Manhattan with Batch. Max Queenan went to Electric Zoo music festival in New York, following in the footsteps of Batch’s mark on Electric Daisy Carnival New York with T.J. Lenzo ’12. Cammy Brandfield-Harvey spent the summer as an editorial intern at Philadelphia magazine, where she unearthed a small-town murder from the late 1960s, befriended a couple of mayors, and incited controversy online over a

recommended sushi restaurant. Cammy headed off to King’s College London for a fall semester abroad; she joined Batch, MacKay, Cal Brooks, and Teddy Drake in the UK. Other ’11ers in Europe for the fall included Natasha Vaz, Elizabeth Kelly, Aube Rey Lescure, Connor Hickey, Peter Heidrich, Eleonora Petrulli, Kerry Lynn Lanzo, and Manuel Fernandez. Beyond Europe, Hana Kim caught up with Sky Yoo, Laura Lee, Ben Brodie, and Will Park in Korea. Kristina Ballard had a great summer working as a marketing intern, spending time in Vermont, and traveling to Zurich with Fred Shepard ’10. Both are now back at school in Amherst, Mass. In other happy news, Erica Morales-Jobse is now married! Erica and Joe Figueroa happily wed in August.
