Cree Jones

Ten years in ten bullet points
• 2000 – Graduated from Burley High School
• 2001 – 2003 – Served LDS mission in the Philippines
• 2005 – Got into Jack Kerouac in a big way, hitchhiked to Kansas City and met Amanda
• 2006 – Graduated from Brigham Young University (BS Mathematics)
• 2006 – 2008 – Joined Teach For America and taught secondary math in Baltimore City
• Summer 2008 – Started dating Amanda in New York City.
• 2008 – 2009 – Taught a third year in Utah
• April 25 2009 – Married Amanda
• Fall 2009 – Started a concurrent JD/MPP program at the University of Michigan
• Summer 2010 – Spent the summer with Amanda in the Philippines doing research in development economics.

Sad to say that Amanda and I won’t be able to attend the reunion. We are flying in from the Philippines on August 4th and will be in Burley through the 8th. We will then be heading back to Michigan to spend some time vacationing with Amanda’s family before Amanda returns to her job as a graphic designer and I prepare for my first year of law school. We will be thinking of you all and wish we could be there.
