10 year Vandy Reunion ✔️

It’s (almost) like I never left 🤣 Huge props to the university for some AMAZING programming. It’s always a time seeing all the changes on campus, but what a blast seeing everyone from the Class of 2016 AND getting to meet so many VAHLA/Affinity group members in person ⚓️

Happy we also got to spend a bit of time checking out some Nashville classics and the local Bills backers bar!
