I am, after 25 years, still working for 'the phone company'! It's been Pacific Bell, SBC and now the new AT&T! I've had many jobs over the years and currently I lead a 13-State System Test team and we have 3 major software releases a year. After much searching...I finally found the love of my life in 1996 (there he was sitting in the cubicle across from me) and we married in 1999! No kids, but we have a small zoo with 2 parrots, a cat and a dog. UPDATE: In May 2007 AT&T outsourced my entire organization to Amdocs, who promoted me to manager of the team I was working on. Had a good ride, but was laid off in July this year. For me, this is a good thing because I hated working for Amdocs. Currently I’m in work-a-holic recovery and taking it easy until my severance runs out…then, time for a new job! http://www.radwin.org/awalt/detail/002164.html Thu, 09 Jul 2009 19:39:35 GMT 2164,1247168375@www.radwin.org/awalt/ Updated 9-Jul-2009. Hi all, We moved from Menlo Park to LAH a few years ago and now I really feel like I'm back in the old stomping grounds, living a few miles from some of the old hangouts. My step-kids Conrad (15) and Jessie (18) are full on teenagers and giving us a run for our money. I've been at Apple for almost 20 years, and am still playing soccer.

Hey all, it was nice to read what you're all up to. I've been living in Mountain View and Sunnyvale since graduating from California College of Arts with a BFA in graphic design. Since then I've been doing design and art directing at design agencies, Sun Microsystems, a magazine and now self-employed in my home office for the last 10 years. Happily married for 20 years (!), Rob and I have 2 kids and spend most of our free time with family and friends. Adam is 16 and Zoe is 9. The two are amazing athletes, musicians and artists, and lots of fun to be around! Of all my activities from my younger days, I still love the martial arts and it's the one I've kept up as a lifestyle--and I get to bond with my kids who kick-it with me. :) http://www.radwin.org/awalt/detail/001857.html Wed, 08 Oct 2008 05:07:58 GMT 1857,1223442478@www.radwin.org/awalt/ Updated 7-Oct-2008. So many years have passed by...where to start? The condensed version... I have worked for the past 10 years with Deloitte & Touche as a CPA actively involved in the financial side of merger and acquisition transactions with technology companies in the Silicon Valley. In early 2000, I took a 6 month sabattical to spend more time with family and friends which was wonderful. I returned to Deloitte in a new role as Program Director for our Technology & Communications Group - this role is more on the HR side. This has given me some tremendous insight into how we run our business! I married Mohana Dissanayake in 2000 - Mohana is also a CPA with Deloitte & Touche (two accountants in the family!). Mohana is a native of Sri Lanka so we had a traditional wedding at a resort in Sri Lanka (with me in a sari!) and we held a second wedding at the Chaminade Santa Cruz for our local friends and family. We are living in Mountain View. Mohana and I enjoy traveling to Sri Lanka once a year; each trip we stop in a new city along the way (Singapore, Kuala Lumpar, etc). This year we plan to spend time in Dubai. Nice to see so many of you at the Reunion...my have we grown up! October 2008: Still living in Mountain View a block away from Huff Elementary School. Have 3 children: Ryan is 5 and boy/girl twins Kasey and Audrey are 18 months old. Yep, so many of you have children that will soon be graduating from high school as opposed to me just starting out. Ah well. I am now a full time mom and Mohana is a partner with Deloitte in San Jose.
