Carol and her husband, Rick, moved to Round Pond in 1986 where they raised their two sons. As a teacher and administrator here in Maine and throughout New England, she interwove the natural environment into her curriculum whenever possible, bringing an awareness of nature and the environment to her students.
Having retired from the classroom in 2017, Carol currently volunteers at the Skidompha Used Book Shop and on Hurricane Island, trims trails for Coastal Rivers, and traipses through the wilderness of the midcoast with her husband, Rick, and dog, Che. Her “beater” kayak takes her to islands on the Maine Island Trail, and in winter she is a xc skier.
