Harker Alumni Association

Graduation fever is still on! Thank you, Gianna Chan, Anishka Raina, and Andrea Thia from the class of '22 for including us in your joy!

Congratulations to all three on your graduation from Cornell University 🎓🥳g!

We are so happy to see that your Eagles are still up 🎉🏆🦅.

The class of '26 weren't the only ones at graduation! So many others came to support them, just as Ragles do ❤️.

And of course, many alumni from the class of '26 showed up the next day to have their yearbooks signed by faculty and staff 😊🥰.

We hope you will always come back and support each other! There is no team like team Eagle 💯💪!

The Harker Alumni Association is hosting Jason Lin ‘21, Preston Ellis ’21, Dawson Chen ‘22, and Alex Lan ‘23 for a panel discussion about their journey from being college students to startup founders in the AI age. Alka Tandan '90, who has been the CFO at successful startups, will moderate the panel.

Through this panel, you will experience the entire lifecycle of a startup: New venture, revenue generation, sale of a company, a starting a second venture, while leveraging the power of AI.

Learn first-hand about the vision, process and fruits of running your own startup from folks that have successfully done it before!

Thanks for stopping by, Ankita, and congratulations!

In Harker Aquila's latest editions, read about:
Rupan Bose '07 who took up his job at the Stanford School of Medicine because he wanted to work as a doctor and educator. He was inspired by his teachers at Harker for inspiring him to teach!

Frank Wang '08 who works in cybersecurity and data privacy. Frank became interested in these fields long before they were popular among tech professionals. He advises students to "listen to other people for [career] advice, but you shouldn’t always follow it”! He encourages them to find things that they find interesting and pursue them.

Nathan Kim Dhablania '14 shares how he was motivated to work at the "intersection of science and human impact" by the bio and chem classes at Harker and his volunteer work at Good Samaritan Hospital.

While you are there, don't forget to check out the articles on prom, the musical, Green Team's clothes sway and how to calm your cortisol! ☺️ 😎
