Bailey Boyd
Bailey, M.Ac., L.Ac., Dipl.Ac. (NCCAOM) received his Master
of Acupuncture from the Northwest Institute of Acupuncture
and Oriental Medicine (NIAOM) in Seattle, WA., where he
then began both a successful private practice and an integrated
practice with naturopathic physician (ND) and licensed massage
therapist (LMT). He was a teaching assistant in both Chinese
and Japanese acupuncture classes at NIAOM. He is currently
licensed by the state of North Carolina and board certified
by the National Commission for the Certification of Acupuncturists
(NCCAOM).
Additional training includes postgraduate studies in Chinese
herbal medicine and various Japanese acupuncture protocols,
as well as certification from Tokyo, Japan in Toyohari meridian
therapy. Toyohari meridian therapy is a highly refined system
of acupuncture (initially developed by blind practitioners)
which involves specialized palpative diagnoses and many
non-insertive techniques using silver and gold needles.
Since no needle insertion is required, this style of acupuncture
is excellent for pediatric treatment and needle sensitive
patients. | Back to Top |

Tom
Carlson It is amazing that it has been twenty
years! I have spent the past twenty years living in seven
different states and traveling through 30+ countries around
the world . After the class of ’86 left, I spent two
years rock-climbing and caving in a small school in TN before
graduating from Cornell in 1990 with an as-of-yet-unused
Mathematics degree. I spent five years working with troubled
youth, first in CA in a children’s home and then for
almost five years in a “Therapeutic Camping Program”
in NC. This was a long-term, year-round program for delinquent
boys. We built our own shelters, lived in them all year,
went on thirty-day canoeing trips, and solved LOTS of problems,
etc. That job continues to be one of the best and hardest
experiences of my life. In 1996 I moved to Boston to pursue
a graduate degree in Theology. During my time in graduate
in school I traveled around the world for eight months studying
other cultures and religions in the Middle East, Southern
and South Eastern Asia. I finished my Masters in ’99
and stayed in Boston doing college ministry and running
a high-school tutoring business when I met Stephanie, my
future wife who grew up as an American in Hong Kong and
shared my interest in living overseas. She was in Boston
for her Masters when we fell in love. We got married and
moved to Minnesota where I began a web-based graphic design
company which grew to five employees in three years while
Steph worked in development in the non-profit world. All
the while we were interviewing for jobs in the Middle East
and finally found a good fit last year. This January we
moved to the Persian Gulf region and I am currently working
as a Business Development Director for an American Engineering
firm. We love living in this part of the world and hope
to stay for some time yet to come. But unfortunately because
we are here, we cannot come to the reunion this summer.
Still, I would love to hear from any of you all still out
there. Email me and let me know what’s going on in
your life! |

DRee
Church Krohn DRee married Todd Krohn on New
Years Eve 1998. They have two sons: Jack (4) and Luke (2).
In the summer of 1999, after having worked the previous
four years in some of the top salons and spas in Atlanta,
DRee returned to Athens and opened DRee and Co. as a hair
studio located at 497 Prince Avenue. DRee carefully selected
the best elements from all her experiences when planning
her return to Athens and launch of her own business. After
two years of being open solely as a hair studio, DRee noticed
her hometown still was lacking a spa with the atmosphere
of those found in Atlanta and other metropolitan areas.
With that conclusion, her commitment to expanding the business
began. After a complete renovation to the adjacent space
(built in 1901), DRee & Co. began offering Wellness
Spa Services in June of 2002, thus making it the premiere
Day Spa for Athens and the surrounding areas. In August
2003, after little more than a year of opening the Wellness
Spa, DRee & Co. received the distinct honor of winning
the Athens’ Banner-Herald’s 2003 Reader’s
Poll for two categories- Best Hair Salon and Best Day Spa.
DRee's company won again for Best Day Spa in 2004 and 2005.
In addition to running her own business, DRee serves on
the Athens Tech Cosmetology Advisory Board. |

Daniel
O'Steen In 1997, I married my soul mate, Layne and we
have two boys, Daniel, 5 years old, and Charlie, almost
2 years old. After the birth of Daniel, I chose to be a
stay at home mom and thanks to my children, I have finally
figured out what I want to do when I grow up. I plan to
return to school to earn my Education and Spanish degrees
so that I can teach. My desire is to teach kindergarten,
first or second graders. Currently, I am teaching Children’s
Church and working in the nursery at Lawrenceville First
United Methodist Church where my family and I are also members.
I still run as often as I can, pushing a double jogger all
the way. I will run my first marathon next year and will
run the New York City, the Atlanta, the Walt Disney World
and Boston Marathons by the time I’m 45 years old.
The Boston may take longer. In addition to running, I enjoy
backpacking and camping, playing in the yard, skating and
skateboarding with my boys, reading, movies and theatre.
My accomplishments between graduation and children seem
blurred by the realization of my life’s calling to
be a mom, but the high points include serving in the USAF
as a jet engine mechanic, winning 2nd place in the Peach
State Body Building contest in 1991, and jumping out of
an airplane in 1998.

Jeff
Farrell After graduation I took the “scenic”
route through college finally finishing at Georgia State
in Atlanta with a finance degree. Stacey Lundy, Barry Peavey,
Ted Tarpley and Trey Seagraves remained my closest friends
and roommates throughout my time in Atlanta and beyond.
I took a job that as a mortgage loan officer for a company
in Jacksonville, FL where I moved in March of 1995. I stayed
in Jacksonville for about 8 months and was asked to transfer
to an office in Savannah. It was a perfect move for me since
my father had lived in Savannah for the last 20 years and
I had many friends and other family there as well. I moved
to Savannah in November of 95. I quickly got an offer from
SunTrust Bank and went to work there in the commercial real
estate group a few months after moving to Savannah. I met
my future wife, Gina, who also worked at SunTrust in late
1996. We began dating in 1998, a very secret office romance
that we kept quiet until we both came back from Cancun at
the same time with suntans. Everyone put it together and
our secret was out. I left the bank for a year to work for
one of my clients but ended up not enjoying the travel as
much as I thought I might. Gina and I were engaged in that
year as well and it was hard to help plan a wedding from
the road, so I got back into banking again. Gina and I were
married in October of 2001. Stacey, Ted, Trey and Barry
were, of course, all a big part of our wedding. Gina and
I moved to Richmond Hill, a few minutes south of Savannah
in 2001. In 2002, a few members of the banking group that
I worked with came together and bought a small community
bank and set up offices in Savannah. We’ve since opened
our office in Richmond Hill where I live and I serve as
the City President. Children aren’t in our plans right
now so we spend a good bit of time traveling and with friends
and family. I’m looking forward to seeing everyone
and hearing a lot of good stories that I’m sure everyone
has to tell.| Back

Sean
Hudson After leaving CCHS, I attended Morehouse
College in Atlanta. I graduated in 1990 with a Finance degree,
moved to Chicago and spent 6 months of each year in NYC.
While I enjoyed living in two cities (especially the free
apartment in Manhattan), I didn’t love Wall Street
Banking during a recession. At the end of my 2 year analyst
program, I moved from cold and windy Chicago to freezing
cold and always snowing Ann Arbor, MI for Business School.
I graduated from the University of Michigan Graduate School
of Business in 1994 with an MBA, moved to New Jersey, and
transitioned from Banking into Marketing. I’ve worked
across some fun and interesting brands that you may know
and use like Johnson’s Baby toiletries and Band-Aid
brand new product development. Then, I got really interested
in Healthcare Strategy and Product Development, and began
working in Diabetes, Cholesterol and for the last 8 years…HIV/AIDS.
I currently lead the US HIV/AIDS business unit for Pfizer,
Inc in New York. Suffice it to say that it’s a pretty
big change going from adding chamomile to baby shampoo.
Not to mention having my office nestled between the UN,
the Israeli embassy, Time Square and Grand Central Station.
Not many people can say that their job involves hanging
out with virologists and people who know how to make crystal
meth. I do love it, though. When in Business School, I met
my wife Karen (the real marketer of the family, and the
one who has had much cooler jobs – most recently with
the NFL). Five Superbowls later, we have two boys, Julian
(almost 3) and Clay (9 months). We live in Maplewood, NJ,
just outside the city. Can’t wait to see and to catch
up with everyone. Phew! 20 years. It should be a ball!

Langford I received my BFA with a major concentration
in Graphic Design and a minor in History from Georgia State
University while working a plethora of jobs full time (sleep
was rare). I worked as a lead Veterinary Technician for
three years during which I gained training from the Art
Institute of Atlanta in Graphics and Digital Image Editing.
From there I designed, wrote copy, and typeset ads for a
free large format monthly publication called the Piedmont
Review canvasing some of the most prestigious galleries,
restaurants and bistros in Atlanta. I simply didn't like
sitting in front of a box for 10 hours at a time so I became
certified as a K-12 teacher. Recently got an opportunity
to move to Jacksonville, Florida- where I currently work
for Kelly Educational Staffing and Duval County Schools.
I'll probably get a degree in Marketing here when I'm in
my 40s--not too far away for all of us. I've still got that
sense of humor that keeps me goin'! Go Dawgs! |

Marino After graduating from Agnes Scott College
in 1989, I went to work for National Federation of Independent
Business (NFIB) and then Gannett who proceeded to move me
to Boulder, Colorado. I hated it. So, after two years I
returned to Athens and got into property management. I did
that for about ten years. During that time, I became a competitive
bodybuilder (yes, I have pictures to prove it). I worked
my way up in the NPC to the national level of competition.
My aversion to steroids kept me from being viable as a pro;
so I am taking a hiatus from bodybuilding to decide just
where I want to go with it. I also was a personal trainer
on the side as well as doing some small investment property
management as an independant contractor. Needless to say,
I kept busy. In 1994, I met Mike van Der harten through
mutual friends. After ten years of on again off again, we
finally got married (I kept my maiden name) on October 23,
2003. Mike in an interior architect in Atlanta. After several
abortive attempts at changing careers, I decided to go back
to school. I am currently a graduate student in the School
of Public and International Affairs. When I finish, I'll
have a Masters in Public Administraiton in higher education.
While I do this, since I am accustomed to being so busy,
I am managing a Walgreens in Gainesville. Who knows what

in 1990, and became engaged that same weekend to Susie Milner,
listed below as an honorary class member. (After attending
her sophomore and part of her junior years at CCHS, she
graduated from Lowndes High School in Valdosta.) We then
went to Penn State to pursue graduate degrees, and were
married in Pennsylvania in 1993. In 1996, with an M.S. in
aerospace engineering, I went to work in Connecticut for
Pratt & Whitney, one of the "big three" manufacturers
of jet engines. If you've ever flown on an airplane, there's
a good chance our engines provided the thrust. I've been
with P&W ever since, including a two-year assignment
in Munich, Germany. The attached picture shows me at Oktoberfest
in 2003. Mr. Wooten would be proud of how well Susie and
I were able to assimilate into the local culture. I even
climbed the Zugspitze, the highest peak in the German Alps.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Germany, but reluctantly
returned to Connecticut in 2004. We then turned our attention
to another exciting adventure, and on February 1, 2006,
Alexander was born. And what a joy he is. Even better than

For
Athens native and Georgia alumnus David
Perno, it was the only head coaching job he
ever wanted and in just his third season, he was honored
as the 2004 National Coach of the Year by Baseball America.
Perno, 38, guided Georgia to the College World Series and
a third place finish, they captured a share of the Southeastern
Conference title and earned a final national ranking of
fourth. The Bulldogs went 45-23 in 2004, had a record 28
games televised and set Foley Field records for total attendance
and per game average. Perno shared 2004 SEC Coach of the
Year honors with Arkansas' Dave Van Horn. Also, Perno was
named 2004 National Coach of the year by CollegeBaseball
Insider.com. Georgia's recruiting class for 2004 was ranked
10th best nationally by Baseball America. Before coming
back to Georgia, Perno was an assistant under Robert Sapp
at Middle Georgia Junior College. In 1996, the Warriors
posted a 58-9 mark and third place finish at the JUCO World
Series. Perno worked with the pitchers and recruiting. Following
his playing career, which included one season at Middle
Georgia and three at the University of Georgia, Perno served
as an assistant coach at Marshall University for three years.
While at Marshall, he received his master's degree in Athletic

in the state. Perno transferred to the University of Georgia
in 1988 where he played his final three seasons in various
roles and was a member of the national championship team
in 1990. He graduated from Georgia in 1991 with a degree
in Marketing Education. A 1986 graduate of Clarke Central,
