Hello from LA! I never would have predicted that I would live in Southern California, but I must admit that I like it. After college, I moved to NYC and taught in the inner city there for ten years. In 2010, my husband’s job brought us out west, and I switched over to teaching 4th grade at a private elementary school. Currently, I’m on maternity leave for the school year as two kids under two seems to be even more than one full time job.
Twenty years on, Winsor still influences my life as much as it did each day I circled my name in pencil on the sign-in sheet, though in very different ways. Our brilliant and caring faculty influence me as I teach law students. The amazing Class of 1996 and the broader alumnae network have supported me in ways I never imagined. When I was diagnosed with an aggressive form of breast cancer in 2012, the successful treatment was part of a clinical trial run by a Winsor alumna, and Winsor friends were a constant presence at Dana-Farber. I can’t repay Winsor for all it’s given me, but I am proud to have been part of the Board that decided to keep the school at the Longwood campus and build the new Lubin-O’Donnell Center, which will serve a new generation of Winsor women.

I live in Washington, D.C. with my husband, David Fahrenthold, and our daughters Alexandra (age 4 at the time of reunion) and Stella (born December 2nd, 2015). I recently joined World Resources Institute, an environmental think-tank dedicated to economic development, to lead a new program on sustainable investment for institutional investors. Before this, I worked in private equity and management consulting, and was a consultant for the World Bank. Dave is a reporter for the Washington Post, covering national politics. I feel lucky for my Winsor education, and I credit my teachers for sparking my interest in so many topics that have guided my life. I’m also grateful to Winsor for so many wonderful friends.

Adam and I welcomed our son, Benjamin Lev Tulgan, on September 3rd. Ben surprised us with an arrival three months ahead of his December 6th due date. He has shown himself to be feisty and resilient, continually impressing us with an iron constitution throughout innumerable challenges in his short life thus far. After a long and difficult journey to create him, we could not be more delighted that he is here.

It’s a quietly elegant fragrance brand that is growing furiously. London’s culture, travel, and cuisine also keep me busy. Hope to meet more Winsor alumnae in London!

2014 was eventful. I married Scott Kennedy in Udaipur, India surrounded by family and friends from over 20 countries. We met in 2012 on a trans-Atlantic flight; our first conversation was about literature and Winsor. Sadly, the same year, I lost my father Narendra K. Patni. A global IT visionary, my father was a fan of Winsor’s approach to teach-
