Classmate Update: Jennifer (Shaff) Fogarty

Hi Everyone! It's Jennifer (Shaff) Fogarty. Since Graduation I have done a lot of traveling and moving. Before leaving Iowa, I completed massage therapy school, graduating as class salutatorian . I have lived in Portland, Oregon, where I met my husband, Matthew. He was a chef in the restaurant where I was a manager. We worked together for a little over a year before we quit our jobs and spent the summer on the road touring the US. We camped and stayed with friends all along the way. We visited Crater Lake National Park, Arches National Park, the Grand Canyon, Las Vegas, Santa Barbara, Denver, and Cedar Point Amusement Park among other things. Then we went to Europe for about six weeks. We stayed with my Aunt outside of Frankfurt Germany for most of the trip but we also took short trips to Venice, Prague, London, Austria, and the Champagne region in France. When we returned we settled in Sacramento, CA where we married before our son, Maxemillian, was born. Leaving Sacramento a little over a year ago, we purchased our first house in Lakeville, Minnesota. My husband is the executive chef of two restaurants in the Mall of America. I am currently the Administrative Assistant for fashion designer Yana German, of the Yana Collection. I love being able to work from home so I can take care of Max who is now almost a year and a half.
