Happy birthday!
We asked the alumni below, celebrating a birthday today, September 26, "Where are you now?" Here's what they said...
Nikki Bhatia MMS '15
Taking a break from election fun (and a little craziness) at CNN with a stop at The Daily Show, ironically for more politics (and craziness). Also, finding balance this year with some traveling - started the year in Goa, summertime in Toronto, and hoping to end the year somewhere equally as fun.
Charles Cammiade MBA '14
Mostly in London, sometimes back in NC, and very occasionally also walking on the beach. Spending most of my time on Cleartrade, a software for getting the best prices for home projects, and now thanks to this email from Fuqua - also wondering how the last decade passed so quickly!
Tracy Cohen MBA '98
My family and I live in Dallas, where I oversee finances for several school-related non-profits. After many moves, our next will send us to Cincinnati in the summer of 2025. Always on the go, our family enjoyed a trip to Turkey this past August.
Bhavesh Gondha MBA '13
After graduating from Fuqua in December 2013, Shrutee and I moved to Southern California. We now have two kids (daughter Naya turning seven and son Dev turning three), and this is us at Disneyland. I currently work as a private banker at J.P. Morgan Private Bank.
Meera Goswitz MBA '22
Hello from Washington DC! Parker (MBA ‘22) and I met at Fuqua and moved to DC after graduation. I currently work at a health tech company called Hello Heart in Partnerships and Business Development. Pictured here is Parker and I at a Fuqua friend’s wedding in Portugal. Cheers!
Ashwanth Kumar MSQM '24
I'm living in New York City and working in healthcare. I love anything that has to do with healthcare innovation and disruption. I also love traveling, playing and watching soccer, and teaching myself new songs to play on the piano. Here is a photo from my solo trip to Easter Island, Chile, in September 2023!
Barry Mills MBA '13
We've been living in Washington, DC, since graduating from Fuqua in 2013. I'm currently working for the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (part of the U.S. Treasury) on commercial credit risk issues. This is a picture of my wife (Kristy) and me doing a 500-mile week-long bike ride across Iowa last summer. We're training for our first triathlon sprint this fall.
Jody Tyrpak MBA '96
I got engaged to Daniel while at Fuqua, and we have now been married and living in Cleveland for 28 years. I've been at EY for 26 of those years. We just moved our youngest of two daughters off to college and enjoying some extra time for travel.
Ziyu Wang MSQM '20
I have been living in Dallas, TX, since graduating from Fuqua MQM in 2020. I am currently working in the demand chain team at 7-Eleven, Inc. Below is a pic of my recent hike of my first Colorado 14ner. I am very blessed to be able to recharge my mind and body and explore my potential when I am out in nature. So, when the ocean or mountains call, I will answer it :)
Ned Weaver MBA '02
I am in Toledo, Ohio (my hometown) running a mergers and acquisitions consulting firm. My wife, Sabrina, and I have been married for 19 years and are currently engaged in the college applications process with our older son. Here is a photo of me skiing in Utah with my boys!
