CLASS NOTES Moreover, the Shanghai China Headquarters are awesome! Traveled again in October, this time to Frankfurt and Prague. Get in touch with me when you visit Shanghai! And say hi to my little sister, Michelle Liang, when you see her in class!
Timothy Yu, MBA 2012 After finishing my MBA, I served as the Director of Marketing for Recon Instruments, and then Director of Creative Operations for Aritzia. However, at the beginning of this summer, I managed to secure a deal with UBC and the Graduate Student Society to take over the muchloved Koerner’s Pub. We have since undertaken a full renovation and opened our doors on October 15th. Our vision is to bring a quality pub and bar to the UBC student community—something that I believe has been missing for some time.
Frankie Cena, BCom 2013 While I have only been an alumnus for a few months, I have been blessed with numerous 62

opportunities since my time at Sauder. Just a few weeks after graduation I became a model for one of North America’s largest clothing retailers—American Eagle. In May of 2013, I flew to New York City with 20 American Cast Members and we shot for the Back to School Campaign. I can be seen in stores worldwide. I also had the pleasure of singing for thousands of people on The X Factor Stage in LA and meeting Simon Cowell that evening. My performance (and the audience reaction) can be found here: http://www. youtube.com/watch?v=Bktl6ldoVX8 More highlights can be found on my website: www.frankiecena.ca
Sean McNulty, BCom 2013 My highlight of the year has been being hired in the Capital Markets Group of CIBC World Markets on the Global Currencies Desk upon completion of my degree in April 2013.

I moved to Calgary this year to experience headquarters and have had incredible growth opportunities in both my work and personal life, ranging from leading a task-force for a segment of a national project to bicycling to Banff with friends on my first ride over 250k. This month I found out I will be moving to Edmonton to take on the role of Senior HR Representative for North Alberta, just four months after my technical gradation date! The attached photo from a hike called Cirque Peak sums up this summer for me: it captures the feeling of being on an adventure... on top of the world.
