On June 10th, 2018 Katherine and I (Brian) attended Pavni Diwanji's 50th birthday boat cruise. Below are a few pictures, click on any picture for the highest quality "original".
Below from left to right is Freeman Murray (in orange), Pavni Diwanji, and Brian Wilson. Freeman and Pavni co-founded a company called "Kendara" together in 1999 and Brian joined Kendara as an employee, and then in 2001 Pavni and Brian co-founded a second company called MailFrontier (click here for other MailFrontier history) together. They are all standing on the deck of Pavni's San Francisco apartment which overlooks the marina.

Below is a random picture of the gathering of guests at Pavni's 50th birthday party, on Pavni's deck in San Francisco.
After gathering at Pavni's San Francisco apartment, we walked a short distance to board the boat.
The boat is called "California Spirit" and it is owned by the San Francisco Giants mostly for corporate events.
Below is a picture of Katherine Chung on the boat (picture taken by Brian Wilson).
