Annie Lawson – I’m still happily living in Pittsburgh and recently started a new role as Executive Operations Partner at Abridge, a health tech startup using AI to help patients and clinicians better understand and follow through on their care. It’s been an exciting transition into the tech space, and I’m really enjoying the opportunity to support a mission-driven team working to make healthcare more accessible and understandable. Outside of work, I’ve been soaking up all that Pittsburgh has to offer – great parks, local events, and of course, pierogies. One of the highlights of my year has been serving on the HOGA Directorate – it’s been so meaningful to reconnect with Havergal and give back to a community that continues to shape me. If you’re ever in Pittsburgh (or passing through), I’d love to catch up!

Rebecca Hoffer-Kahansky – My husband Jonah and I are expecting a baby boy (our first child) in July! Lexi Ensor – This year, I completed my second and final year as President of HOGA, as well as my fifth and final year on the Havergal Board. It’s been a whirlwind journey – especially while juggling a full-time job – but an incredibly rewarding one. I’ve been so fortunate to connect with Old Girls of all ages, as well as parents, students, and the remarkable faculty and staff who make HC such a special place. While I’m looking forward to a slightly lighter calendar, I’m deeply grateful for the experiences and relationships I’ve built within the HC community. I can’t wait to cheer on Anna McMeekin Morrison ’03 as she takes the reins as HOGA President next year. I’m excited to see all she’ll achieve in the years ahead!
