Hello Class of 2006! This edition of Class Notes features the high-impact nonprofit work being done by your classmates in rural Kenya, marriages, babies and swimsuits (in keeping with the spirit of the summer). Enjoy!

Kellogg friends gathered from across the country to celebrate the marriage of Julia Kozorovitsky to Ariel Iris on April 15 in Livingston, N.J. In attendance were Raquel Aceves, Pamela Gans Carey, Chrissy Lowe, Chas and Amanda Carol, Reuben Toledo, Sharad Bhargava, Jason Maga, Sandi Smith, and Sarah and Matt Forti.

Joao Luis de Moura Belo and his wife Katrina had a baby girl named Amalia Grace de Moura Belo on Jan. 21. Joao writes, "Katrina and I are of course incredibly happy with our little stinker and are living la vida loca in the Bay Area."

Valerie and David Vasselin were happy to welcome their first son, Thomas, on Jan. 4. Thomas is growing up quickly and the family is adapting to its new life in Switzerland.

Elton D. Milton and his wife, Mau Clark-Milton, welcomed their third child, Akari Samaesan Milton, on Feb. 24. Older siblings Akai (3) and Akiya (7) are overjoyed! Elton and his family now live in Chesterfield, Mo. In August, Elton started as the assistant to the president at Silgan Plastics Inc. and has recently transitioned to the role of director of strategic pricing.

Aarthi and Sridhar Parameshwaran welcomed their first child, Jyotsna, on April 6. Mother, father and daughter are bonding very well and getting used to life in London.

Dave Katz and his wife, Sonia, welcomed their daughter, Sarah Chloe Katz, into the world on Dec. 5. Dave works for JPMorgan in New York City. The family is enjoying the family life in Westchester County, N.Y.

Andrew Youn, who started the nonprofit One Acre Fund, writes from Africa: "I am living in rural Kenya, launching One Acre Fund, a nonprofit that invests in farm families to permanently grow their way out of poverty. It all started out of my Kellogg nonprofit internship in Africa, and the business plan was written at Kellogg in the New Ventures class. It is going well: We are serving 500 families so far, having great impact for our families, and won a Draper Richards Foundation grant. Matt Forti, board chair; and board members Shalani Bhatia and Taira Hall (programs), Amy Hsiao (marketing), April Kozen and Paul Wormley (investment council), Diana Lee (board development), Jason Maga and Sashi Pemmasani (finance) all have been working hard, giving their spare time to launch the organization. We started the organization while still at Kellogg and have been going strong ever since. We thank our 150 supporters in the class of 2006 and welcome more friends!"

Oliver Rajic writes: "After joining First Data in Denver in July 2006, I received an internal offer (with a pay raise, hurray) from an international First Data division based in New York and moved three months thereafter. It has been an exciting few months, as the group has been growing and I have been traveling all over the world (toilet water, when flushed, really does spin the other way in Australia). Additionally, my brother, Dali Rajic '04, whom many of the '06 Kellogg soccer team members know, was recently promoted to vice president of business development at Witness Systems, which was bought out shortly thereafter, no doubt due to his team's performance and heavily applied Kellogg management strategies. On top of that, the impossible happened and my brother married in South Beach. Even though his wife received her MBA from the University of Chicago, she is his perfect partner in every other way. All the best to the rest of the 2006 class, and I miss our soccer tournaments."

Alison Coleman writes from California: "Since graduation, I have already changed cities from where most of you thought I was going to end up. Instead of remaining in Chicago, the city we all know and love, I transferred to Deloitte's San Francisco office. Recently, a couple of my favorite Kellogg girls (Mileva Zunjic and Renee Martin) flew out to visit me in my new city. We had a wonderful weekend re-connecting and ended up at dinner with some of the other Kellogg lady alums in the Bay Area."

Bo Parfet scaled the summit of Mt. Everest on May 17. Although obviously exhausted after the climb, Bo sent in this update four hours after coming down the mountain: "While climbing Everest I faced many challenges. Avalanches and rock slides are the biggest killers. Secondly, the bad health conditions. At one point (because of the lack of oxygen to the brain), I had to deal with cerebral confusion, exhaustion and sleeplessness, vomiting, diarrhea and dehydration. Thirdly, the weather was a problem because of frost bite and freezing temperatures, which are commonly minus 35. ... Everest was simply the hardest experience of my life. The cold air burned my lungs like fire. Every step was torture and with every step my body and mind were screaming at me to turn down. I, somehow, kept pushing my physical and mental limits. In the end, I was lucky enough to stand on top of the world."

Kellogg '06 alumni in South Korea had a mini-reunion dinner in Seoul, which included Andy Lee, Steve Yang, Sunny Kim, Kevin Chung, Kosuke Suzuki, Julie Lee, Krittee Manoleehagul and Rob Svetlik. Kosuke was visiting Seoul from Tokyo on a study.

Sonita Lontoh writes from San Francisco: "This has been a spring of travel for Adam and I. We went to Bali and Jakarta, which are both in Indonesia. Bali is famous for its friendly people and spiritual culture. We felt complete bliss while staying at the magnificent Begawan Giri Estate in Ubud, which is the cultural mecca of Bali. If Kuta is Ibiza, then Ubud is more Santa Fe. We rounded up our spring travel with our second trip to the Kentucky Derby to watch the 133rd Run for the Roses. Although the experience wasn't as surreal as last year when our boy Barbaro won, it's still a magical experience. Hope everyone is well. Please do contact us if you are ever in San Francisco. We'd love to see you."

Philippe D'Arabian writes: "I can't believe it's been nearly a year since we moved to Texas! I'm working hard at Bain Dallas, but we still have enough time to enjoy getting to know the area and our fabulous neighbors. We love it here."
