Our first speaker in this series will be Tony Jimenez, President and CEO of MicroTech. We have 100 spots open for this event, so if you are interested, please register here.
A little about Mr. Tony Jimenez: Mr. Tony Jimenez is living the "American Dream". His personal story is as dynamic and inspiring as his achievements. Born in Virginia into a family of modest means, his incredible drive, work ethic, love of technology, and desire to make a contribution to society have all led to his recognition as one of the top leaders in the technology industry and one of the most influential Hispanics in the nation. Since founding MicroTech in 2004, Jimenez has grown the business into a profitable quarter-billion dollar company with over 400 highly skilled professionals in more than 28 states. MicroTech supports over 100 prime contracts with civilian and defense agencies of the Federal government and provides IT and network support to numerous Fortune 500 companies around the globe.
As a huge Notre Dame fan, Mr. Tony Jimenez is looking forward to speaking with ND alums in this exciting event. He will share his incredible journey, give his perspective on todays business world, and offer insights that only a successful entrepreneur and CEO can do.

ND ALUMNI SOCCER TEAM 2013
Dear Irish Alums,The ND Alumni Soccer season is here, and we're looking for new players to join us on the pitch this year. All skill levels are welcome, as we try to play competitively (I mean, we are the "Fighting" Irish), but the most important thing is everyone plays a lot and has a great time kicking the ball around with their fellow alums.
Games are on Sundays from now through June at McKinley Technology High School (T Street NE, Washington, DC). If you are interested, please e-mail Michael Osysko (michael.e.osysko@gmail.com) right away, so he can add you to the roster before the game this upcoming Sunday. We have a good core of returning players, but have had some people move over the past year and are in need of some new players, especially females (we could always use more males too, so don't let that deter you in the least, as like I said, everyone gets plenty of p-time). Hope to see you on the field! GO IRISH!
ND ALUMNI SOFTBALL 2013
Lads and Lasses. The 2013 Capital Alumni Network (CAN) Co-Ed Softball League season is just about to begin. No seriously, the first game is next Friday, April 19th and our second is April 25th. Though we have a great core group that has played for several years, we are always looking for new faces who like to play some ball and drink some beverages. If you have a glove, and/or like drinking beers mid-week, then you qualify! Boom. Just like that. For more information please contact coach Jimmy Mandich '02/'03 MSA at jimmymandich@yahoo.com or Brandon Lenk '06/'07 Arkie (stupid Jimmy with his dual year degrees, I could walk twice too ya know!) at brandonlenk@gmail.com. Or both of us just to be safe. Go Irish!
