Happy summer Class of 2001! Our classmates are keeping busy as ever.

Chris Saenger writes in to share that he is back in Washington, D.C., after spending four years in Bogota, Colombia. He will now be leading USAID’s Ukraine desk for the next couple of years. Chris’s wife, Caroline Adams Saenger, still paints beautiful, abstracted landscapes, and he adds that he smiles wistfully when he passes the exit for Middletown on his way up to visit his daughter at the University of Vermont.

Elizabeth Savage has started her own practice, Elizabeth Savage Law, located in Portland, Oregon. She focuses on appeals, civil litigation, and family law. Visit Elizabeth’s website (savage-attorney.com) to check out more about her new private practice.

We have another law career update from Wei Hu. Wei was recognized by City and State New York’s 2024 Trailblazers in Law publication! Wei’s practice, MRTA Law PC, was highlighted for helping to advance social justice and economic equity in New York’s adult-use industry and cannabis law. Wei is considered a leader in this category in part for prevailing in a pro bono appellate matter that changed New York State’s marijuana conviction expungement laws in 2023, as well as for having worked with Governor Hochul’s office on regulatory and enforcement matters to stem unlicensed dispensary operations throughout New York in 2024. As if Wei has not been busy enough, he, along with two co-owners, also recently opened Lenox Hill Cannabis Co., a dispensary located in Manhattan’s Upper East Side.

Correction from last issue: Mattitiyahu Zimbler’s name was misspelled. We apologize for the error.

Whew! Thanks so much to everyone who shared their news. We love hearing from you.

Best,

Aryn and Mara
