Janice reports that “the book is
set in contemporary Hong Kong
and is about three very different
women living in ‘the rarefied
world of American expats’ (
Van-
ity Fair
) but I think it is mostly
about the bonds of women and
motherhood.” She is currently
on a book tour across the U.S.
(check janiceyklee.com/ to see if
she will be visiting a bookstore
near you). Janice also co-hosted
a successful SPS Conversa-
tion event in December at the
N.Y.C. home of
Kate Gellert ’89
to give N.Y.C.-area alums the
chance to speak with Rector
Mike Hirschfeld ’85
about
current events at SPS. The event
was well attended, and I had the
chance to connect with
Kathy
Shergalis Ewald ’89,
Vanya
Desai
’89
,
Alex Tilney ’96
,
and a number of other alumni
from our generally overlap-
ping years.
From
Erik Scalavino
: “I re-
cently founded a charitable or-
ganization dedicated to ending,
or at least reducing, animal suf-
fering around the globe. We’re
called Nutmeg Animal Welfare
(@NutmegAnimals on Twitter).
In November 2014, we officially
became a 501(c)(3) and in the
summer of 2015, we launched
our website (www.nutmeg.
global). If anyone is interested
in learning more and getting
involved, please get in touch
FORMNOTES
with me at eriks@patriots.com
or erikscalavino@gmail.com.
We could use all kinds of help.
Also finishing up my first book,
a travel memoir about the trip
to Africa that spurred me to
create the charity, and am ac-
tively searching for a literary
agent and publisher. Oh, and
after decades of supporting
them as a fan and nine seasons
with them as an employee,
the Patriots finally won me a
Super Bowl. Got to experience
both getting a ring and visiting
the White House. Two dreams
come true.”
Jenny Petersen
shares:
“After 10 years of living abroad,
my husband and I decided to
pack it in and head back to
the States. We have settled in
St. Petersburg, Fla., near my
mother, where I amworking for
a small pharmaceutical solu-
tions/services startup. A big
change from the giant global
corporate scene, but a very
welcome one. It’s good to be
back on home turf. I’m looking
forward to finally making it to
some SPS reunions. If anyone
is in the Tampa/St. Pete area,
please look me up.”
From
Carli Walker
: “Life is
very good on my end. I am liv-
ing in Southport, Conn., with
my wife, Danielle, and our three
sons: Angelo 5, Nicholas 4, and
Matteo 2. Business is great as
well. I continue to enjoy a thriv-
ing surgical practice in urology
at Yale, specializing in male
sexual dysfunction and prostate
diseases. I also hold an appoint-
ment as assistant professor of
urology in the Yale School of
Medicine, conduct clinical re-
search, and direct community
outreach and prevention pro-
grams for the prostate cancer
program at Yale.”

News from
Matt Wong
: “In
October, my wife, Lisa, and I
celebrated the first birthday
of our third child, Theodore
Makaio, together with his big
sibs, Elliot and Marina. The
three are now 1, 9, and 11 years
old, respectively. It has been a
joy to embark again on the new-
parent journey. We also raised
a first round of seed capital for
our software startup, Liquidaty.
I left J.P. Morgan after 10 years
(in 2014), with the purpose of
making business data more
accessible and usable. I am
happier than I ever knew I could
be, and I try to appreciate and
cherish each day. I enjoy also
being in fairly regular touch
with some of our classmates
– look me up if you’re passing
through New York City and are
interested in catching up.”
