Happy Birthday!
September 24, 2009
Each month, FuquaNet recognizes the alumni whose birthdays fall on the issue's publication date. We asked the alumni celebrating a birthday today (September 24), "Where are you now?" Here's what they said:
John J. Bousa, Daytime MBA 1987
I enjoy my vegetable garden in Wellesley, MA, root for the Boston Red Sox, and I just passed the CPA exam in my late 40s.
Arjun Dutt, Daytime MBA 2008
My wife, Shveta, and I have been in Atlanta since graduation. We love the city, with its lush neighborhoods, towering modern buildings and friendly people. I'm really enjoying my job as a consultant at Bain and Company, and I'm an active member of Fuqua's Alumni Club here. All in all, life is busy, fun and everything that I'd hoped for after the Duke MBA.
