Generation in Denver. The elephant work will surely continue interminably, but my lease and Seventh Gen contract terminate in August. I have no idea what I will do what next! Anyone?

Kristin McCurdy Motley

I currently live in Hanover, NH, and work in development for Dartmouth Medical School. I married Brooks Motley on October 1st at a summer camp wedding in Maine! We met at Bates College, and he is a medical student here at Dartmouth. Outside of work, I write a food blog: www.daysfork.com. Check it out!

I recently moved to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, with my fiancé Jesse. We met as undergrads at Bowdoin and have relocated to Pittsburgh for his graduate program. This fall I am traveling through Central Europe with a friend from college. I would love to know if there are other alums in the Pittsburgh area.

Shoshana Pinedo

I am back in Amsterdam working as a fashion design intern at Viktor & Rolf. Next week I get to go to Paris Fashion Week! I will be finishing my master’s in Fashion Design at the end of 2012 at the Academy of Art, University in San Francisco.

I moved to Newton, MA, in June. I got a summer job as a ropes course/rock wall specialist, and my boyfriend Ryan got a summer internship at Toole Design, which designs pedestrian and bicyclefriendly facilities in and around Boston. We did this move while I had just been sent to the ER with a bacterial infection. I could not bike race for a month. I fortunately was able to recover in time to fly out to Sun Valley, Idaho, where I had qualified to compete in the Mountain Biking Cross-Country National Championships. It was a blast! It has perfect weather and so many neat things to see, including Dr. David Holmes ’60, former headmaster during my time at SA! I had just completed my cross-country race and there he was, sitting on the patio. We had a chance to catch up. He is the Head of School at the Community School right around the corner from the resort. I brought back a silver and bronze medal to the East Coast! Not bad for being sick for a month and only having 2 days to acclimate before the first race. Hopefully next year I will have some sponsors that can help to make it a longer trip! The rest of my racing season has been going very well. I will go all the way into December. I also had the chance to meet up with Alison Leonard ’06 in Boston. She is getting a double master’s in accounting and business. We went to the Nike store to get our picture taken in front of Prefontaine and his famous quote that we had on our 2003 S.A. girls’ crosscountry running shirts. For the fall, I acquired a position working for McLean Hospital in their Pathways Academy as one of the special education assistant counselors. It is also only a 3-mile bike ride from home. I am planning to take the GREs at the end of September and apply to graduate programs in the Boston area for education and environmental science. In September, I received my professional license upgrade for mountain biking. This was due to my successful 2011 season, especially my strong results at Nationals! I will not have a paid contract for the 2012 season, but hopefully in the near future (2013!). I am waiting to hear about a grant from the Women’s Sports Foundation, and I am also going to be looking for teams and sponsors. If I do not get on a team that can help with the costs of travel and training expenses, then I will be reaching out for sponsors that will be represented on my own jersey. If anyone is interested in supporting me or if you know a company or individual who may be interested, please contact me.

I am doing great and have just celebrated my one year wedding anniversary to Ian Prior. We were married on October 1, 2010, in Newport, RI, with Shoshana Pinedo as one of my bridesmaids. Ian and I are currently living on the east side of Providence, where I am enjoying working in real estate/ property management, and Ian is practicing law.
