1990s
Somil Mehta ’96 writes, “After over 15 years of experience in international enrollment management at the university setting, one and a half years ago I transitioned to the corporate side, joining IDP Education, a global leader in the international education sector. My role there as a Senior Client Success Manager is to help U.S. partner institutions reach their international recruitment goals. My professional journey in international education began as a result of being a student ambassador during the International MBA program at the University of South Carolina’s Moore School of Business. My career in international education has given me the opportunity to travel to over 50 countries to meet such amazing students from diverse backgrounds. I currently live in Long Island, New York, with my family.”
Clifton Buck ’97 writes, “Shannon and I, along with our two sons Cormac (12) and Oliver (9), are enjoying life on the Georgia coast in Savannah where I am based at the University of Georgia’s Skidaway Institute of Oceanography. I am celebrating my 12th year on the faculty at the UGA and was promoted to full professor of marine sciences. In Spring 2025, I completed my first season officiating collegiate men’s lacrosse as a member of the National Intercollegiate Lacrosse Officials Association. In preparation for the season, I was in Atlanta for a training session. In an amazing coincidence, I chose to eat dinner at the same restaurant as fellow alumnus Clark Wilson ’97, his two sons, and his parents. We had a great time catching up. Unfortunately, no one thought to grab a picture.

2000s
Michael Freedman ’06 writes, “I’ve always loved competing in sports and the associated community, starting back with the baseball and football teams at Flint Hill. During Covid, like many others, I felt a longing for that sports community, and in 2023, I ventured into the world of triathlons, completing multiple Olympic distance races and an Ironman (IM) 70.3 race (formerly known as a half-Ironman). I also joined the Board of Directors for the Seattle Triathlon Group, which is a nonprofit that provides triathlon training and education to its fitness community. In 2024, I completed three IM 70.3 races (Tri-Cities, WA pictured here) and a full IM race in California, qualifying for the IM 70.3 World Championship in New Zealand in Dec. 2024 and the full IM World Championship in Nice, France in Sept. 2025. It’s never too late to learn a new activity!”

In 2024, Avril Lavigne launched her ‘Greatest Hits Tour’ which sold over 420,000 tickets across 28 shows in North America and included a sold-out show at the world-famous Forum in Los Angeles. All Time Low (who I started managing while at Flint Hill in 2005) celebrated 20 years of their career with special marquis shows, which included sold-out stops at Red Rocks in Denver and finished with a momentous hometown show at Columbia, MD’s Merriweather Post Pavilion, which sold over 10,000 tickets.

Trying to make a difference in kids’ lives throughout the area through the game of basketball. It has been a lot of fun growing a small business while also being able to help athletes including former and current Flint Hill Basketball Players!
