1991 — Part-Time

Michael Carrier provided this update from Missoula, Mont.: "I'll have been the hotel controller at the DoubleTree Missoula Edgewater for two years in April. I left the Hilton Anchorage in Alaska, where I was the club president and sole member of the Alaska club for a couple years, in January 2005 and started with the DoubleTree in April of 2005. I believe I am the only member of the alumni network in the hotel industry since I've had a couple of students contact me about hotels. My wife, Mary Jo, has started her own eBay store (Pursenicity) dealing in vintage and designer purses and other such items. My daughter Nicole is a very active first-grader and got her purple strip belt in kempo karate in February and took third in age/skill level at her first tournament last year. She is looking forward to more tournaments this year. We are all looking forward to visits from both sets of parents this summer. Nicole's Grandma Gynn and birth mom Becki spent a week with us in February. Last August we went to Ohio to surprise my parents for their 50th wedding anniversary. If anyone's travel plans bring them through Missoula they can find me in the accounting department at the DoubleTree."

Augustin "Augie" Rojas left Motorola at the end of 2005 to join Nortel as vice president of change management, and moved his family from Long Grove, Ill., to Raleigh, N.C. Augie's wife, Rosie, has made a lot of new friends and really loves living in the South. Heidi graduates from Baylor in August with a degree in marketing for music entertainment after an internship in Nashville with a record label. Kevin is going to be a senior at Wakefield High where he plays football and runs track.

Gabriele Meissner Doyle, co-owner and business manager of River Bend Christian Counseling, writes: "We've made it for over two years now and are embarking on our mission to help addicts gain recovery and educate the community about the dangers and risks involved in this disease. We've been in operation long enough to apply for several state programs to enlarge our patient base and are gaining a solid reputation in our areas of expertise."

My life has been interesting since leaving Motorola last summer to become the vice president of marketing for Harman Music Group based in Salt Lake City. Harman Music Group (BSS Audio, dbx Professional, DigiTech, Lexicon) is part of the professional audio group of Harman International. With two kids, Kevin and Amy, at Barrington High School, my wife, Diane, and I decided not to move the family last summer. As such, I have been doing the commuting thing which is less than ideal. The skiing, however, has been great on the weekends when I stay at my rented condo in Park City, Utah.
