LUMNAE NEWS Joanna Dyson Jakubcin ‘81 Oviedo, FL I am happy to announce that my book The Journal Flies Overboard, was officially released on April 15, 2009. The book is listed with AMAZON.com or www.RoseDogbookstore.com Here are some useful stats regarding the book: • Author’s name or pen name is JOAN RUTH. • Consists of 24 short poems, from humerous to devotional, some traditional observations of nature, travel themes, and some philosophical themes • The book is suitable for audiences of many ages, from 4th grade through college-level. • “The author’s style shows a creative juxtaposition of surprising influences, including Emily Dickinson, E.E. Cummings, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Edgar Allen Poe, William Blake, and Robert Louis Stephenson.” Sister Catherine Anne Burleigh ‘90 Baltimore, MD Sister Catherine Anne Burleigh has been named principal of Mount de Sales Academy in Baltimore, Maryland, a 500- student, all-girls college prep high school staffed by the Nashville Dominican sister of which she is a member. For the past four years, Mount de Sales has been named on the top 50 Catholic high schools in the United States. The school draws from 73 feeder schools in three dioceses and has a faculty of 80. Jenny McGraw ‘00 Cincinnati, OH I graduated from Xavier University in 2004 with a degree in Special Education, and have been teaching students with autism for several years now. In addition, I own a photography business and have had the privilege of photographing weddings as well as family, children and senior portraits for many Ursuline alumnae. You can view these portraits on our website at www. freshviewstudio.com . In October, 2008, I was blessed with a baby boy, and am loving every aspect of being a mommy. I have even joined a playgroup with a few of my UA classmates who also had babies in 2008. I look forward to seeing the class of 2000 at our 10 year Reunion next June! jenny@freshviewstudio.com Kari Williams Sheanshang ‘01 Cincinnati, OH After earning my CPA, I finally mustered up enough courage and financial independence to do what my heart had been begging of me for the longest time. I gallivanted around the globe. I parked multi-million dollar jets on Martha’s Vineyard, volunteered as a rainforest guide in Costa Rica, hiked the tallest mountain in Central America, cheered Germany onto victory at the EuroCup, and ate sushi from the fish market in Tokyo. I can now rest easy knowing that I did what my heart had been begging me to do. Since I got that out of my system, I have found my way back to Cincinnati to be amongst my ever-growing family. I joined a wealth management firm in Blue Ash, Ohio. Here in Cincinnati, I have been quite entertained by my nieces and nephews. I had the privilege of coaching my oldest niece’s lacrosse team at Sycamore. I continue to play and ref the sport. Other than that, I am an avid cyclist, rock climber, and lover of learning not just for school, but for life. Hope all is well with my darling Ursuline sisters. Come one, come all, come contact me at ksheanshang@wealthdimensions.com. Live the fourth! Nikki Moeller ‘03 Milford, OH Life has been quite crazy lately. I moved to Columbus after I graduated from OU to become a teacher. That plan of attack didn’t really work out and I ended up getting a job with a great company that provides personal assistance where needed in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom—Afghanistan. As it turns out, I am a very good recruiter and I was quickly promoted to specialized contracts all around the world. So far I am the only recruiter in the company to win Recruiter of the Quarter titles twice in a row and Recruiter of the Year in the same year. I love my job and I love supporting the troops in any way I can. I am hoping to go to graduate school soon to get a Master’s in Security and Intelligence. My time at UA taught me to adapt to any situation and I credit Ursuline with the success I have experienced so far! GO LIONS! Nm126203@ohio.edu 38 VOICES SUMMER 2009
