Carolyn grew up in Media, PA, graduated from Penncrest High School and received a BS degree in Zoology from the University of Vermont. Carolyn worked at The Jackson Laboratory in Bar Harbor for 38 years. In 2013, she moved into the role of Programmer Analyst III. During her tenure at Jackson Lab, Carolyn built many of the foundational JAX applications, including some legacy systems that are still in use today. Carolyn loved a large variety of outdoor activities including many years camping on her island at Green Lake, hiking, boating of all kinds, fishing and ice fishing. As a music lover, she played trombone in high school, college and for over three decades in the Bar Harbor Town Band.
