When I was a junior, the senior guy I liked studied in the basement at his thesis carousel. I remember one night my father called to tell me he had won the largest case in his professional career and I should celebrate. I ran downstairs to that carousel and asked him to join me for champagne and oysters at Bluepoint, compliments of my father. That was quite a night as we’ve now been married 25 years! This Fall, we will add another “P” to our Brown badges as our second child will also attend Brown!<\/span><\/p>\n
