Jamie Barnes Donovan	Works at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center
Ashleigh Brown Bradley	Ashleigh and Justin got married in August 2011. "We got married in Fort Wayne where I am from and have been living in our home out in Morrow for the past 2 years. I am still at Children's and have been for almost 4 years now! I cant believe it! I was at GSH for 6 months right out of school and then switched over to Children's and took a floating position where I covered maternity leaves on the out-patient side of things for 9 months and then got the position on the in-patient side of things on the medical/surgical floors and the cardiac infant floor. I love my job, love the people I work with and love the fast paced environment of the hospital. I am so lucky to be at Children's and can see myself there for a really long time! I sit right next to Laura Sauer Kohus and work with Kat Hardy, Liz Manford and Jill Hamilton Bakker. We have a great team and full of XU grads! Its awesome! "

Maura Hofherr	Update on 1-4-09: "In February, I will be heading to Tena, Ecuador to continue working as an occupational therapist. I have been practicing at the Drake Center for the past 2 years, working in adult inpatient long term acute care and rehab. I now will be transitioning to outpatient pediatric services. With this transition, and travel to a location with limited resources, I am seeking advice. There has never been an occupational therapist before at the location I am going to and I know many of you have travelled to countries in need, especially during the past few years. I am getting a little anxious, being the first to set up their occupational therapy program so I am trying to gather as much information as possible. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you for your support and happy new year!"
