Jeff Takle (Questrom’96, CAS’96) of Somerville, Mass., runs Global Connectivity, which connects medical diagnostic devices to the internet in the developing world. The devices are used to fight infectious diseases like Ebola, tuberculosis, and HIV. “Faster disease information leads to faster health care response and better health outcomes,” Jeff writes. “Global Connectivity has national networks in 23 countries across Africa, Southeast Asia, and Latin America.” Jeff’s wife, Heather (March) Takle (Questrom’99), runs mergers and acquisitions at Ameresco, an energy services company in Framingham, Mass. Jeff and Heather have two sons, Grady and Anderson, and a big dog, Buckley.
