Director

Cari’s creative journey started when she was a kid and followed her through college at Simon’s Rock, Albany University, and Lesley University—painting and showing her work along the way. Her career took off in the nonprofit sector, where she held executive and consulting roles, mostly in philanthropy. During the pandemic, she picked up painting again, finally reconnecting with her “artistic-self” who had been on hold for so long. Now at Merri-Mar Yacht Basin, she gets to stay close to the water, another long-time love. She lives on Lake Attitash in Amesbury with her two butterscotch kitties. Cari’s new to the board and excited to jump in and contribute during this exciting time in the life of the organization.
