Welcome to the 1993 National Youth Science Camp Alumni Page.
I have recently added some pictures of us back in 93. Hope this page rekindles
some friendships and "rustic" memories!
Jeff Bond, KS93

Hey everyone! It's great to see the different paths everyone has taken! After camp I took a slightly different route, and I graduated from the
University of Utah in 1997 with a masters in Accounting - emphasis in taxation. I've been with Deloitte & Touche (national accounting firm) for 9 years and am currently a Senior Tax Manager. I've been married for almost 10 years and have one daughter, Avery Lynn, who was born in December 2003. Life is busy, and I still look back to NYSC with great memories! Keep in touch! (7-05)

Hi all -- Here's the short blurb. I'm happy. I graduated with
a BA from Smith College in 1997, got to serve on staph during 1994 and 1995,
married Duncan Marriott (VT92, staph 94, 95) in 1999, and got my MS in geology
from University of Alaska Fairbanks in 2000. I'm a geologist for the state of
Alaska, and its lots of fun. Here's my email, would love to hear from NYSC-ers!

So the topic of "I can eat glass" came up in my office today, and I said something like "yeah, I know the guy who started that". Then proceeded to google for Ethan, and found this page. I graduated from MIT in 1997, and have lived in Cambridge, MA, ever since. For the past two years I've been working at a software company called Endeca. Feel free to email me (tryanc@gmail.com) if you're in the area, are looking for a job in software, or just want to say hi. (10-06)
Nikki Clemente MA93 Pic
Hi All!! It sure has been awhile and a lot has happened since
1993. I will try to keep it brief. I graduated from Holy Cross in Worcester,
MA in 1996 with a BA in Biology. From there I taught high school science for
two years and did research at UMass Medical Center. In 1999, I decided to make
a career change (sort of). I went back to school (UConn in Storrs, CT) to get
my MA in Latin American Studies. I will finish in May 2001. Then it is off to
DC from some summer intern positions and back to UConn in the fall to do my
PhD in Political Science. Feel free to email me, I have lost contact with quite
a few of you and would love to hear how you are doing. (5-01)
Bryant Crisp NC93 Pic
I can't believe NYSC was eight years ago! After camp, I went on
to attend North Carolina State University (Go Pack!). Since that time, I have
been teaching junior English at Myers Park High School in Charlotte, NC. Over
the last couple of years, I have also been doing a great deal of work with the
College Board, doing workshops nationally and managing to collaborate on a Pacesetter
textbook. One of my essays and one of my poems (Mike Ritthaler, you changed
the way I write!) even made the cut! Best of all, my wife and I celebrated the
birth of our first child, Garrett Bryant Crisp, on April 4, 2001. I would love
to hear from you guys! E-mail me at rbcrisp@bellsouth.net. (7-01)

Hope everyone is well. Haven't kept up with everyone, so thought I would give an update. I went to UN-L for a bachelors in mechanical engineering and completed a co-op with General Motors in Fort Wayne, IN.

Eleven years later, and it still feels like I was hiking for 11
miles in the rain yesterday! I graduated from Johns Hopkins in 1997 with a BS
in Biomedical/Chemical Engineering. Somehow I ended up in medical school and
graduated from the Univ of Florida College of Medicine in 2001. Currently I'm
a resident in Radiation Oncology at the University of Maryland in Baltimore.

Woohoo! First update in 2007! And man, is that pic of me um...shall we say, unflattering? LOL--gotta love the vanity and subsequent humbling involved in Googling myself just now. But it was great to read up on what people have been up to, even if some of the posts are old. Anyway, about me: I too followed the medical career path...undergrad and med school at Creighton, then to Akron, OH, for my ob/gyn residency, now in the DC area (work at Georgetown, live in Arlington) for my fellowship in maternal-fetal medicine. Gawd, does the learning ever end? Kidding. I wax nostalgic about NYSC all the time, especially living sorta near WV and also seeing the various DC monuments we visited way back then. Drop me a line if you're ever in my neck of the woods. (8-07)
Darren Glass GA93 Pic
Life is good...progress is being made on my dissertation, and
hopefully in May 2002 I will have a PhD in mathematics from the university of
pennsylvania. I'm also getting married this summer, and still loving life in
Philadelphia...if you're ever in the area, drop me a note as I'd love to hear
from/see you! (1-01)

Just realized it's been 2 years since I updated - eek! I'm finally done with my neurology residency and a fellowship in multiple sclerosis. At last I have joined the wonderful world of private practice here in Denver. Email me if you're in town or if you just want to talk. I still miss those summers at NYSC as a delegate and on Staph when I'm slaving away in the hospital. kgraesser@msn.com (8-08)

After NYSC I attended Bethany College and Doane College and graduated
with a BA 1997. At this point, I accepted a job at Bethany and returned to Lindsborg.
In December 1999, I completed the requirements for another degree and someday
soon will probably be going back to the classroom. In July of 2000 I suddenly
decided to move back to NEBRASKA. I am currently the Housing and Student Activities
Coordinator for the Columbus Campus of Central Community College in Columbus
Nebraska. Still not married, but I have met Mr. Right Now and am enjoying life
in a small town and taking some time to travel. In May, we cruise to the Bahamas.
I would love to hear from you all. ahays@cccneb.edu (4-01)

Emily Holmes IN93 Pic
During college, I spent two great summers ('95 and '96) on staph,
working with the music program. I graduated from Duke in '97 with degrees in
design and art history, and went to London for a few months to study theater.
After that, I moved to Jersey City, NJ and worked as a graphic and exhibit designer
for Liberty Science Center, a large science museum right across from the World
Trade Center. I did some professional theater, then a brief stint as an art
director for a dot-com in Manhattan. Now I'm in western NJ where I own my own
freelance web consulting business. I also have a full-time web design job at
a web solutions company located in an 18th-century farmhouse. It's been a busy
few years and I've landed in a great place - think I'll be here for a while.
If you're ever in NJ, please drop me a line! (7-00)

Hi Everbody! Just thought I'd finally drop a line to say what's
up and see how y'all are doing. I completed my B.S. at WPI in 1997. I did a
double major of Mechanical Engineering and Theater. However, for the past 2
years, I have been working as an architectural drafter. I'm debating right now
on whether to go into math education or actually get a degree in architecture.
The biggest news as of late is I am engaged to Kris Pearson of Naples, Maine.
We plan to be married in September 2002. I hope this finds everyone in good
health and spirit. Feel free to email me (louise@gweep.net). I'd love to hear from you!

Dakota. I am interested in Pediatrics, but don't hold me to that. I just recently
(12/18/99) got married to my wonderful wife Elizabeth who is an English teacher.
I feel like a bum for not being on "Staph" like the others, but I was a counselor
last summer at a Junior High summer science camp. Does that count? (1-00)

Hello everyone! Hello everyone! Well, I finished my Chemical Engineering
degree from UMass, Amherst in 1997. I was lucky enough to be able to serve on
Staph in '94 and '95. Unfortunately, I felt compelled to get a year-round job,
and I've been working for Hewlett-Packard in San Diego, CA since graduation.
I was married in '00, and we are the proud parents of a dog since '02. I'm planning
the NYSCAA reunion for August '04 which will be happening in San Diego! Check

form will be posted soon! Hope to see you! (5-04)

Left my college teaching gig for greener pastures (haven't found them yet). Considering a move to Washington DC for employment (but dreading life near a big city). I saw Kirby Lee back in August 2005 (he's working in DC), but other than that not much news. I sailed aboard a World War II Landing Ship Tank for 60 days in summer of 2005 as a volunteer crewmember when we gave tours of the ship up and down the east coast (from Mobile, AL to Boston). A flat-bottomed ship - so it rolls like the devil. Would love to hear from any of you if the mood strikes (I do travel as much as I can across the US, so you would be surprised where I can turn up sometimes - Buffalo, WY; Dupuyer, MT; Chinle, AZ; Valentine, NE; Yoakum, TX; - if you wouldn't mind a visitor for an afternoon or an evening, let me know - I may just show up sometime.
