From Colby:
Enjoyed 5 great years at KU post SME. Married a KU grad from Emporia and have been in Chicago for over 10 years. We have a 2 year old son (Luke) and a brand new baby boy born in May (Connor) who naturally keep us very busy and happy.

Still talk to a lot of old Lancers frequently and cannot wait to get back together in June.

From Shannon:
 Thanks to Boresow et. al. for planning the reunion!  I'm looking forward to catching up with everyone in June.  After East I headed to KU for undergrad and then off to Wash. U. in St. Louis for grad school in Physical Therapy.  Professionally I re-invent myself every so often, going from work in sports and orthopedics, to sales & clinical support for a biotech company, and now on to pediatric physical therapy.  All have been great experiences.  I've lived in Denver now for 10 years & love Colorado - met my husband here & we have 2 kids - Wyatt (5) & Georgia (3).  See you all soon!

From Marian:
Wow...20 years.  This website is amazing--thanks to Jennifer Burns for coordinating this.  It has been fun reading everyone's bio.

I went to KU for undergrad then into KU med school.  Finished my last 2 years of medical school in Wichita then stayed for a combined Internal Medicine/Pediatrics residency.  Met and married my husband Pete Wilson while in residency.  I worked as a Hospitalist in Wichita while Pete finished his surgery residency then we moved to Layton, Utah in 2004.  I am now working for the University of Utah as an Internist.  Gave up Pediatrics when I realized it was hard to find a group that practiced both.  I love working for the University, and it has given me the time I need to spend with my 3 wonderful children, Sean (5), Jason (4), and Olivia (18 months).

We come back to KC at least once a year to see family, but unfortunately will not be in town for the reunion.  Sounds like a fun and well-organized weekend!  I will be home for 4th of July (the Pham family reunion) and hope to run into some of you!

From Dana:

Are we really old enough to be attending a 20 year reunion?  Thank you so much to Jennifer, Jon, Jeff, Kevin, Emily, Courtney, Mark, Kama, Katie, Stephanie and Tammy (and anyone else involved) for the work you have done for our reunion!   Undergrad in Lawrence made me a Jayhawk at heart so it was a little strange to head to Kansas State for veterinary school.  I met my husband Jason, a classmate, Nebraska Cornhusker, best thing that happened to me in Manhattan (best thing that happened to me ever).  We came back to Kansas City for one year while I completed an internship.  Our first daughter Cambell was born in Kansas City and then we moved to Helena, Montana where our second daughter Mira was born.  If you ever visit Montana I highly recommend Glacier National Park, it is amazingly beautiful!   We traded snow boots for flip flops and I completed a residency in veterinary dermatology at the University of Florida in Gainesville.  Ten months of summer suited us well and I stayed to teach at UF after my residency.  Two years ago we moved to Frisco, TX, a north Dallas suburb.  We love Frisco; people are awfully nice, a lot like living in P.V.

From Allyn:
After going to college in Pasadena's Art Center College of Design, I just couldn't bring myself to leave California. I've been working in the Video games industry for the last 16 years and am now working at Lucas Arts. I've worked on everything from Aladdin Genesis to The Sims 2 and live in CA from San Diego to SF. I'm also 13 years healthy after a bout with Hodgkin's Lymphoma (or Cancer Lite as I call it) I currently reside in San Francisco with my husband, very fat cat, and in Sept. our first child! (it's a boy!) I can't wait to see everyone next month!

Shawnee Mission hail to thee, Lancers we will always be....20 years!?!?!  This reunion/re-connecting stuff is fun.  After 9 years away, I am back in Kansas City and work in Lawrence.  My wife Kim (she went to SM South) and I have 2 kids, six and four.  Life is great and I am looking forward to this opportunity to get lots of updates on old friends and seeing everybody next summer.

From John:

After East I headed to Miami of Ohio where I met my wife Molly.  Except for a 2 year stint in Michigan from 01-03, we have made KC home since 1994.  We have four great kids (2 girls & 2 boys) ages 2, 5, 9, and 11 and do our best trying to keep up with them.

I have worked in the medical device industry for most of my career and just got done being a student again as I recently wrapped up an Executive MBA degree here in town.  I still see a number of Lancers fairly often, but am looking forward to getting caught up with many more of you in June.

From Kirsten:
Can't wait to see everyone - thanks to the committee for working so hard on this. As for the last 20 (?!?) years, I left SME for the hallowed halls of Notre Dame with fellow Lancers Jeff Burns and Laura Dickey. While on the London program at ND, I met future husband Ken Boehner who was studying law over there. After college, I did some internship work in DC, returned to school for a Masters in HCI, then got a job in North Carolina doing learning software development. We missed London though and worked our way back there via Brussels (not a very linear story). I returned to grad school to finish up my PhD recently and am now doing a post-doc in technology design. We had a little girl two years ago - she's awesome. Of all the jobs I've done, motherhood is by far the most rewarding and the most challenging. As for our current whereabouts, things are up in the air. We may be moving back to London. Hopefully by the time of the reunion, I'll know for sure!
