Brothers’ News – Spring 2024 

Some Pi Lams are doing great things, while others…

Mike Murphy ’03 – Loves Taco Tuesday

After serving and/or employing generations of Pi Lam brothers at Billy Murphy’s Irish Saloon, Murph is branching out. He recently opened Taqueria Cresta in the same East Falls neighborhood as his family bar. Congrats Murph! Yo quiero cerveza. 

Michael Tang ’21 – Citizen Soldier

Michael has the unique distinction of being both a Grunt and a Whaleshit! As an undergrad he served in the PA National Guard and was even deployed at City Hall during the protests in 2020. #MilitaryAppreciationMonth

Read his recent interview on the Pi Lambda Phi IHQ website. 

Brad Rogers ’93 – Constructing his future

Congrats to Brad on being promoted to Sr. Project Manager by Ally Construction Services, and receiving a very corporate promotion announcement… that was most likely constructed by AI.

Daniel Moss ’20 – Naval power

Batten down the hatches. Dan recently started a new position at Naval Sea Command Warfare Centers as a computer scientist. Apparently, all those hours playing “Call of Duty: Navy SEALs” paid off.

Malcolm Kenyatta ’12 – Democratic candidate for Auditor General

Congratulations to State Representative Kenyatta for winning the primary for PA Auditor General! The auditor general serves as the state’s “chief fiscal watchdog,” ensuring tax dollars are properly managed and spent. He will face the Republican candidate in the general election in November. #Vote

Quentin Holtz ’17 – Health Insurance Ninja

Snaps to Quentin, an Account Executive at Independence Blue Cross, who was recently accepted into the Pennsylvania National Association of Benefits and Insurance Professionals Emerging Leaders Program.

Spring 2024 Graduating Seniors 

Congratulations to these gentlemen (now with 38% more “Nicks”) who will be presumably joining the ranks of a productive American workforce. Good luck brothers!
