- Alumnus Hikes the Appalachian Trail - 01/17/2023You recently hiked the entire Appalachian trail. What prompted you to take on such a challenge?

Serendipitously, the company I worked for went through some ownership changes, and I felt it was the right time at 57 years of age and in relatively good health to take my 2200-mile adventure!
