CLASS OF 2007 | 2022 | FALL ISSUE

Greetings classmates! Megan here. Victoria and I have a few updates to share. First, we’d like to give our thanks to the class of 2007’s reunion committee. We really appreciate the time and effort they put into our 15th Reunion! Thank you to: Eric Altneu, Liam McAlpine, Estrella Lopez, Tory Masterson, Nishita Roy, Eugene Dayanghirang, Melissa Miller, and Samantha Kantor.

On the career front, we have quite a few exciting updates. Jessica Necheles says, “I moved to Guam last year and it would be fun to know if there are other alumni out in this part of the world. I’m working as an RN at a hospital here, and scuba diving and hiking in my free time.” If you’re in or around Guam, give Jessica a shout!

Jesse Nasta reports that he is starting his sixth year of teaching in Wesleyan’s African American Studies Department. He also became executive director of the Middlesex County Historical Society in Middletown in 2020, hired via Zoom during the pandemic. Jesse says, “I am always happy to hear from classmates who are visiting campus!”

Matt Donne has been moving and shaking as well. He says, “I’m psyched about a new role I just took. I recently joined a new clinical trial start-up called Vial as a senior business development director.”

Jessica Mack has also accepted a new position. She reports, “Starting this fall I’ll be an assistant professor of history at Rowan University!” She continues, “I’ll be teaching digital history and Latin American history and launching a new center for digital humanities at Rowan. Happy to be staying in the Philadelphia area.”

And finally, Cynthia Santiago recently announced her 10-year lawyer/law firm anniversary! She says, “I’ve been assisting people in immigration cases nationwide through our legal pop-ups, hosting a national TV show, and direct representation. By my side is my husband and three beautiful kids Nico (8), Galilee (4), and Bethany (2).”

As always, we’d love to hear about what you’ve been up to! Please send any professional or personal updates to megan.kretz@gmail.com or victoriapinsky@gmail.com.
