1987

Christopher Campbell
Poitiers, France (1985-1986)

I've been in various fields but for that last 10 years I have worked for the Vanguard Mutual Fund Company in Scottsdale, Arizona. Although I don't use my French, it is a very rewarding job and career. I travel to Europe every few years. I have not been to Poitiers since 1993 but I have since been to France and Italy. I would love to hear from the fellow Poitiers students from that time.

Amy Jurist
Avignon, France (1985)

I graduated from the UO in 1987 with a degree in Advertising and then spent 17 years as a marketing director at FOX, FX and E! and Style television networks. While I’ve been doing catering for years, I finally decided it was time to pursue my passion of cooking and went to culinary school last year. Since then I’ve been doing product development for various food companies, catering and personal cheffing (AMYSCULINARYADVENTURES.COM). I also do a lot of marketing consulting and photography, too (ajphotoworks.com). I traveled through France last year with the head chef from the culinary school, and she and I spent three weeks driving from amazing restaurant to restaurant. We went back to many of the great cities we went to when I was in the Avignon program. I am also working with her on opening her own culinary school. No kids yet, but two adorable dogs, a great house in the hills with a terrific view and fond memories of a year in Provence! ajurist@earthlink.net
