Our Staff
Carrie graduated from the University of Maine and has lived and worked in Maine all her life. Her career has focused primarily in the area of fundraising where she has spent the last twenty-five years working with a variety of non-profits across the state. She grew up on the Kennebec River in Farmingdale but now lives in North Yarmouth and has a camp in Lincoln with her family. Carrie loves the State of Maine and exploring all the amazing places that make Maine “the way life should be”. Please email Carrie at: ckinne@kennebecestuary.org
Alicia has worked in publishing and marketing for 16 years, and is currently exploring solutions to sustainability and resource management through a degree program at Antioch University. She moved to Maine full time in 1994 after a lifetime of summers in Cundy’s Harbor and likes to find ways forge connections between people and place. aheyburn@kennebecestuary.org
Anne has worked for 18 years as an environmental, health and safety professional in the energy and biotech industries. She holds a B.S. in biology and environmental Studies from Bowling Green State University and a master’s in environmental health from Tufts University. A strong desire for a slower life with “more green and less noise” brought her to Maine and led to a career shift toward land conservation. Anne enjoys spending time with her husband and two children paddling and swimming.
Erin arrived at KELT to assist with a survey of regional barriers to migrating and spawning fish. After spending three months in the field with measuring sticks and a GPS unit she moved into the office to tabulate her data and tackle other projects such as planning a symposium of all scientific research happening in the Kennebec Estuary. ewitham@kennebecestuary.org
Becky Kolak served KELT as an AmeriCorps volunteer for 10 months through November 2011 doing educational programs and community outreach on the impact of water quality to regional shellfish beds, harvesters and local economies. She did such a fabulous job that we are keeping her at KELT as our first Education Coordinator. She now works with schools, camps, State Agencies, other non profits and community groups to share her knowledge of the natural resources of the Kennebec Estuary. bkolak@kennebecestuary.org
