Greetings all, Hope life is good for you alum/friends....I can't believe it's already been over a year since the 20th but so nice to see so many of you again...I felt like we hadn't changed much (?)..must be the SM water...:) I am currently working in LA for Guess as the Head of Young Contemporary Womens Design for their newest Collection, "G" by Guess. They have high hopes for the expansion of this division and we hope to grow to over 500 retail stores. I am still passionate and challenged by this intriguing industry and love to travel globally meeting new people and observing unique cultures. Still, no place like home though. While I still reside in the OC (it's paradise..) the commute sometimes makes it a bit hard so again, there may be a time soon when I throw in the towel and come "home"..we'll see. For now, I just try to enjoy life and get something positive out of each day. Can't wait til the 25th and Cheers to all!

Want to eventually open up my own hotel/restaurant somewhere in the tropics. By the way the South is quite a change from Santa Monica!

     
Kevin BOSTWICK email Portland, OR Posted 05/24/06

Post-Samohi I went to Reed College in Portland, OR, along with Danny Gamelin, Sally Ganga, Mark Redhead. After bopping around a bit, including rooming in LA with Larry Weintraub, I met my wife, Jennifer, while she and I were working a brew pub back in Portland. We spent a decade in the SF Bay Area, and 2 years in Las Vegas, and now we're back in Portland. I'm working in graphic design and advertising. We just had a baby boy in March. Family is still in Santa Monica, so I get down there a couple times a year, at which time Jennifer always reminds me how privileged I was to grow up in a beach town. Funny, I never thought of it that way at the time.

Great time seeing everyone at the reunion - already ages ago. You all impressed me with your accomplishments and how little everyone has changed. Looking forward to the 25th. I'm happily married almost 10 years to Patrick and we have two awesome kiddos, PJ (5), and Charlotte (3.5). I love living outside Seattle - especially the seasons - but I try to visit So Cal every few months for an infusion of style and sun and to catch up with Samantha Williams Hayes who continues to be my closest friend since 3rd grade. Since the reunion I've opened my own business - what an incredible ride - and I am so happy to be my own boss and not on an airplane twice a week. Quality of life has increased significantly.

Well, after 10 years of marriage, Charles and I finally decided to join the ranks of parenthood. Our son, Calvin Arthur Sakoda Harding, was born on March 31, 2006. He weighed 9 pounds 4 ounces. I'm getting used to being a mom and spending a few months at home with Calvin before heading back to work part-time in August. Looking forward to seeing everyone at the 20 (!) year reunion in July.

(Note: I only refer to myself in the third person now and have added a pretentious silent B to my name) Jimb is the author of three "self-help" bestsellers and conducts both motivational and de-motivational seminars across America®. He is currently working on his fourth book, which outlines strategies for height management. A movie deal for the first book, "I'm Okay...You're Not (In Fact, You're Down Right Awful)" is currently in the works. Jimb has been married to his wife Robin for 19 years. They have two sons, 23-year-old Jay and 16-year-old Jordan. In his spare time (and these days there's plenty) Jimb also creates scatalogical animated cartoons on the internet. Do yourself a favor and check 'em out by clicking the appropriate link...no seriously, you'd be doing YOURSELF a favor, and don't forget, "it's all about you."

I'm sorry if I ever hurt you. Evolution has come slowly for me. I survived a high speed car wreck in '89 which sobered me up. Earned a BA at SDSU in 1992. Happiness is a journey. I am an MRI tech in the Seattle area. I moved here in '98 and found the woman of my dreams. We married in 2000 and have 2 beautiful daughters. The pic is us in the Space Needle. May all of your tomorrows shine.

Life is still blissful here in Santa Monica Canyon with my husband, CJ, my 4 year old daughter, Liliana and my 6 year old son, Captain. I stopped teaching so that I could volunteer at both my kids' schools. I still see many of my high school friends and it's nice. I still enjoy singing and I do it now on Sundays in my church choir (which consists of 3 people.) Our family sports seem to be karate and skiing/snowboarding. Karate turned out to be a great way for me to exercise and our kids can now ski on the same runs we board on so it's really fun. Thankfully, CJ is extremely busy building homes in the Palisades and enjoying many aspects of it. We're coming up on 9 years of marriage and it's gone by pretty fast.

Been living in Arizona for 12 years now (and yes, I love the heat of summer). Have two children Tara Jade (5 1/2 years) and Kyle (4 years) who keep me busy and entertained constantly. Doing the stay at home mom thing until they are in school full time and then who knows? Right now we are enjoying lots of play time and traveling - San Diego, San Francisco, Puerto Penasco, Mx etc... My husband Joel travels a lot so we get to go hang out with him whenever we can. Thanks to all who have kept me updated with what is going on with you and any changes of address etc... Yes, we are going to do another reunion soon (maybe a 25th), but this time on our own (no cheesy company), so anyone interested in joining the committee, we are going to need a lot of help to make it mellow, fun and inexpensive.

Lived in Venice, Malibu and S.M. after college. Only to experience the riots, the fires, and the earthquake, three strikes your out! Living in the Berkshires with a wonderful husband of almost 6yrs. and a daughter, Elizabeth Lee, almost 3!! Own my house and acreage, started a business just this May, involved in church which is crazy but true, and my brother Miles lives a mile down the road two doors down from my in-laws!!! Is life wacky or what? Also, can't believe 20yrs have flown by, yikes! Very cool to find this site and see updates of folks I once knew. My year books burned in the Malibu fires of '94 so this was the next best thing.

Went back to school at UCLA, studied Anthropology and Classics, and now I am currently working on my doctorate in Classical Archaeology and teaching at CSULB. I have spent the last decade living in Santa Monica (again!), studying, traveling, and spending time with my husband, Shaley, and our new son, Nicholas. What a long, strange trip it's been... I hope this note finds you all happy and healthy.

Santa Monica has really made its mark on the map. Just the other day I saw a 'shi shi' Madison Avenue kiddie store selling high-end baby wear from Santa Monica!

After attending SMC for a small eternity and working as a SCUBA Instructor I finaly graduated from CSUDH. Had a brief career in politics, which included managing a legislative race in the Burbank area. Left that profession when my candidate suffered one of the most humiliating defeats in the history of democracy. Hey...never said I was good at what I didSince 1996 I've worked as a producer/screenwriter. My wife and I still live in Santa Monica and have one child.

My husband (William "Bill" Keyser-also an '86 grad) celebrated our 13th Wedding Anniversary in Oct. 2002. We have had 5 children (our middle one passed at 2 months old shortly after our 10th Reunion), the 4 living are Derek Michael (10), Grace Ann (8), Aaron Gabriel (4) and our baby, Faith Lynn (3). I am extremely involved in my kids Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts and just went back to work in Nov. for Boy Scouts after being only an at home mommy for almost all of the last 10+ years. We lived in Florida for one year when Bill was in the Navy, but he got sick and they medically discharged him. We then moved to Pennsylvania, where the first 2 of our kids were born, to live with and near Bill's relatives. In 1995 we moved back to California, I got a job for a short time, got pregnant with #3, and that was the end of that. We've been here ever since. Our kids are now in SMMUSD and could graduate Samohi some day if we don't go back to Pennsylvania before that. I would love to g! et e-mail from our old classmates.

stark stark
Let's see...5 years at Cal Poly SLO while touring with the Grateful dead as often as possible, two more at USC for a grad degree in Safety and Systems Management. Married my girlfriend from college, Norma and moved to the Bay Area in 1997. Finally jumped into the working world as a Health and Safety professional trying to keep OSHA off of big companies backs. Settled in the SF bay area town of Walnut Creek in 2001, working for Citigroup. Job shifted to Security and I'm now Northwest Regional Director of Security. OK, you can stop laughing now, it's true! The fun part of the job is helping the FBI catch bank robbers by distilling digital images from the robberies for them. No kids, just two spastic yellow labs, Karma & Aiko. Got hooked on Triathlon in 2003 and haven't looked back. My first Ironman was in 2006, going back again in 2007 and beyond. XC skiing at Tahoe often and race my mountain bike at every opportunity I get. It was great to run into so many folks at the 20 year reunion.

Hello there. Though I've been out of high school for what seems like a million years, I still get to see some of my high school pals. And that makes me so happy. Hmm, I'm not sure which is my best friend. Could it be Kevin Bostwick? Tehya Kopp? It used to be Robert Moser but he moved very very far away and made me very sad. Brett Franklin is a cool guy. I've known him longer than anyone else not related to me. I like Anne Slattery too (She just changed her name back to that after I had just started getting used to calling her Anne Germaine). Oh yea, and Diana Chao. I love Diana. She's my pal. And Sally Ganga, I miss Sally Ganga. I don't know if she likes me anymore. I might have been a jerk to her over the years. But please don't hold that against me, I do love her very much. We only hurt the ones we love. And the Fatemi twins, Farnaz and Tara are great too. Then there is Janelle Mettler and Danny Gamelin. I don't get to see them very often and that makes ! me a sad panda. And Erika Ray. Dear Erika. She moved to the state of Oregon and I can't go there any more since those warrants were issued when I went up to visit Kevin, Danny, Sally, and my old pal Mark Redhead. And whatever happened to Roger Singh? This is fun, and I could go on for days. But alas. I just wanted to say hello. So, hello.
     
Victoria WELLS email   Posted 10/08/04
I currently reside in San Jose, CA and I am single but looking for that special someone. Other than my work (Borders Bookstore Supervisor/Office MGR for 6 years and loving it), I also enjoy going to movies, sports (Giants (I know, I'm a traitor :) ) & Sharks), leisurely reading, dancing, partying whenever I get a chance, and traveling whenever I can (usually sports related). I live with my 2 roommates in San Jose, CA., one male and the other female (my cat). I'm going to find a way to get down to SAMOHI for our 20 year reunion in 2006. I never made it to the others. It would be great! if someone could send me info regarding reunions! It would be a great vacation!
