Unfortunately, I'm unable to make it to the reunion, so here's what I've been up to for the past 20 years. Most of the time I've been in school getting three degrees in Dallas, TX, Wichita, KS, and Eugene, OR. For a five year stint I was an Adjunct music professor in Oklahoma City, OK before going back to school in Oregon to get my Doctorate in Music. I finally finished it in 2006 and have been teaching as a Music Professor in Flagstaff, AZ since 2004. I love it here in the mountains! I'm sorry to say I'll be teaching at a music camp in Rapid City during the reunion, but I hope everyone has a great time. It's been fun looking at the website and getting and receiving emails from a lot of friends I haven't heard from in a long time. 

I've now been away from Minnesota longer than I lived there in the first place! I went to Massachusettes for college (Williams), then to Chicago for a job (Federal Reserve Bank), then St. Louis for a master's degree (Wash U) and finally back to Chicago for love and a new profession (physical therapy). I've been married and working in and around Chicago for 10 years and I have two beautiful girls. I'm looking forward to catching up with old friends.
