With winter falling on the
Northern Hemisphere, up-
dates this season related to
escaping from the snow. On a
personal note, I’ve been work-
ing in Sydney, Australia, for the
last two months and may be
here through the end of June.
Quentin Reeve ’03
lives here
too, and has been a great help
navigating the new city.
Kaye
Verville
has been a great guide
from afar. I was also lucky
in January to host two other
Paulies –my brother,
Alec Dar-
byshire ’09
, and
Mary Gamber
as they came through Austra-
lia. If you’re in the area or are
looking for recommendations,
please reach out.
Nellie Ruedig
received a master’s of applied
econ from the University of
Michigan and is with Janus
Capital in Denver.
Tessa Raebeck
writes that
she’s found warmer weather by
relocating to Seattle. “So far, it’s
been great – the perfect mixture
of nature and city living for me. I
got a job from back home doing
writing consulting, which made
the transition far easier.”
