My Life at

I had a lot of fun during my years at Duke. I finished my master's in January 2004, and I officially graduate in May 2004.

My favorite picture of all my years at Duke:

From left to right, this is Marty, Nadia, Vijay, LipYeow (crouching), Prachi, and I, posing in the hallway of the North Building, after our last final exam of Fall 1999.

Prachi was my officemate for a year and was the first of our incoming to leave. She was awarded her master's degree on April 11, 2001. Congratulations, Prachi! Good luck in Denver!

Marty graduated in April 2002. He will always have a special place in my heart because he wrote a song called "Marty, Horse Energetic; Sara, Silky Smooth".

Darrell Anderson created a page of bios for some of the above crowd, under code names. I couldn't explain it if I tried, so take it for what it's worth.
