From Kristin Yorke for Spring 2025: Only a few new updates from your Class of 2020, but I promise they’re good ones! ✹ Emily Buckman recently started working as an occupational therapist at NYU Rusk Rehabilitation, which has been her dream job since her senior year at Colby. She and partner Wyett MacDonald ’19 also recently adopted their first puppy, Toast, an English cocker spaniel. Congratulations, Emily! ✹ Margaret “Maggie” Hall is in her second year of graduate school at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio, working on her Ph.D. in clinical psychology. Last fall, Maggie was awarded an APAGS/Psi Chi Junior Scientist Fellowship for her thesis on evaluating social-emotional learning programs and identifying young students who may need targeted interventions. Outside of graduate school, Maggie “coaches a club soccer team of 9- and 10-year-olds, creates crafts that she sells in a local artisan store, and explores the beautiful, but flat, trails, and dreams about the mountains in New England.” ✹ Finally, Grace Crowell is engaged to her now-fiancé Nate Hitchcock (Trinity ’17)! The two live together in San Francisco, where Grace teaches elementary school and coaches lacrosse at Mount Tamalpais School.

New submissions for Fall 2025: Despite studying liberal arts, Adora Lei now works at an aerospace startup building flying boats! They’ve raised $110M with a $9B order book, and are currently gearing up for Series B and are actively testing prototypes. It’s been a thrilling ride with brilliant engineers, traveling to high-tech conferences, and meeting innovators. Colby grads land anywhere, and for current students: If you’re itching for something fast-paced and creative, hard-tech startups are the place to be.
New submissions for Spring 2026: Bibatshu Thapa Chhetri recently moved to Boulder, Colo., where he’s joined Cloudbreak Energy, a renewable energy development company, after spending almost a year in Boston following graduation. He’s been settling into mountain life, spending most of his free time hiking and rock climbing in the Rockies and diving deep into the World Cup season. If anyone’s passing through Colorado, he’d love to catch up.
