2026 is a milestone year, sending our oldest to college (Indiana) in the fall and our youngest now in high school. Celebrating 20 years with my automotive technology company Brandmotion and 10 years with my installation services company. Happily married to Deedee 22 years in January. Lots going on and blessed to have health happiness and a smidge more wisdom. See you in Philly!

Spring is here in Oregon! I’m excited to get outdoors and spend time with family, especially my granddaughter, and to get back out on the road with Wilbur, our chiweenie, exploring the Pacific Northwest in our camper van, ViVi, short for Viva Viajes. Life is a journey. I also have two new books coming out this spring: The Fight We’re In: Organizing for Power and Change, and Murder in Vacationland, part of my National Park mystery series. If you find yourself in the Pacific Northwest, I’d love to connect. You can follow along here: https://lifeisajourney.substack.com/p/the-slow-road-travels-with-wilbur

Since graduating from Wharton, I have dedicated my energies these past thirty odd years to community development in Philadelphia, my birthplace and hometown. I lead a nonprofit community development financial institution (CDFI) called Entrepreneur Works that provides micro loans, training and business advisory services to under resourced entrepreneurs and small business owners in the Philadelphia region. I serve on several boards and committees related to my work. I love the community development finance field and have made lifelong friendships with colleagues across the country doing this work. I am grateful that I can to devote the time and energy to making a positive impact day in and day out. On the personal side, I am still happily married to Alex Hamilton (almost 37 years now!) and together we raised two sons, who are now grown: Ben is an engineer, married and living in the Boston area with his wife and new baby; Nigel is pursuing a career in aviation and currently lives at home. We recently became grandparents with the birth of our grandson, Martin, in December, a new role for us which we are joyfully embracing. Alex and I are still both passionate skiers and spend most of our winter weekends commuting to Vermont where we have a mountain home on the slopes of Mad River Glen. My travel adventures this past year took me to southern Africa (Botswana, Namibia, South Africa, and Zimbabwe), Croatia & Montenegro, Jackson, WY for skiing, North Haven Island in Maine and southern California for a family wedding. I am very excited for our 35th reunion in Philadelphia and look forward to reconnecting with many of you.
