You'll find the Flinn Scholars community in every nook and cranny of the Internet.

For starters, visit the Flinn Foundation page on Facebook, follow @flinnscholars on Twitter, and--if you're a Scholar yourself--join the Scholars group on LinkedIn.

Want a quick answer to a burning question? You can reach me via email at mellsworth@flinn.org.

And who is this writing, anyway?

Since 2007, I've been a part of the Flinn Foundation's communications team, writing about all of the Foundation's initiatives, including the Flinn Scholars.

I'm also a Flinn Scholar alum myself, from the class of 1993. After my undergraduate years in Arizona, I completed an MFA in creative writing at George Mason University in Virginia. Now and then, I do type things not entirely true.

Then he did Teach for America in south Phoenix.

So where is Devon Sanner ('92) now? 

He's the sous chef at Janos Restaurant in Tucson. Yes, that Janos--the one on everybody's best-of lists, pretty much recognized as one of the top restaurants in the Southwest.

You'd better go get in line. Devon says he just unveiled the new Tucson Days/Tuscan Nights menu.
