Where Are They Now? — Howard Snow

Hello all!!

I knew that sooner or later I'd get tracked down. I picked up my cell phone a couple weeks ago and Amy Hughes was on the other line saying "remember me"??? It feels as if graduation has been at least 3 lifetimes ago. When I'm at the reunion, many of you will have to forgive me if I've forgotten names, but just kick me in the shins or something to see if that can job my memory. Seriously, I've been gone from Utah for close to 15 years now...still can't believe it.

Anyway, it's great to read everyone's posts. Here's what I've been up to so far: (at least as far as the CIA will allow my to say). After I finished up at BYU in the liberal arts, I went to get a Master's Degree in Business from George Washington University in DC. Moved to do a quick post-grad fellowship in Austin, TX (great music town!). After that my wife and I moved to San Francisco and lived there for about three years. In SF I did strategy consulting for Accenture working with health systems (much like IHC). Life was great there but travel was tough and the cost of living was beyond ridiculous so we moved to Boise for a great job opportunity and a much more family friendly career in the biotechnology industry.

I do work in hospitals, spending time in ERs, Operating Rooms, etc training surgeons, specialists, etc on how to use injectable medications / monoclonal antibodies. When I told Brandon Hill this he said "wait, didn't you barely pass Mr. Webb's Anatomy class?

Well, Boise is about a million miles away from where I thought I'd end up, but in all honesty, it's the greatest city and we absolutely love it here. If anyone's ever up in Boise, please give me a call! There's always good food to be found, a great art scene, and the music scene completely rocks. I go to see live shows with my wife, cronies, and on occasion I'll take my oldest son who's just getting ready to turn 12. Speaking of family, it's a complete testosterone festival in the Snow household : 4 boys (handsome little devils) and holding strong. Ages are 11, 9, 7, 2. Unless I win the Powerball lottery I think we're set on the kid front.

Within the last few months, I've actually been making a few cameo appearances in Utah as my older brother and I opened up a restaurant there. Spare time will find me on my road / mountain bike. I heard from Brandon Hill that he's done a few triathlons and so I'm looking to hook up with him and anyone else who's interested in doing the unthinkable. My wife and I make it a point to take at least one international trip each year. Thus far we've been to Europe, Africa (note to self : do not put your arm on the queen of Swaziland...picture of me being arrested attached), Asia, South America and the South Pacific. The world is an amazing place as you all must now know.

Well, I should be able to make the reunion so I'll look forward to seeing you all there!

Best to all.

Howard
