Kristen Giambro, Accountant
As NRCM’s accountant, Kristen works closely with the CFO/Director of Finance. She plays a crucial role in the organization, ensuring accuracy and integrity of the organization’s financial records, supporting financial decision-making, and helping maintain compliance with financial regulations. Kristen joined NRCM in July 2024 and brings 15 years’ experience in banking, spending 3 of those years as live-in caretaker at a living history museum where she took care of a team of oxen, sheep, pigs, laying hens—and a rooster that arrived in the woods one winter. (She would also occasionally help out during events by dressing up in 19th century clothing and once had a mirror broken when cannon fire from a Civil War reenactment shook the house!)
Favorite Ice Cream: Peppermint Schtick (Tubby’s)
Dog or cat person? Dog
Favorite Things to Do Outdoors in Maine: I love to go hiking and trail running. Although, now that I am often accompanied by a toddler, I spend the majority of my time watching tadpoles and playing with rocks.
Favorite quote: “Going to the mountains is going home. (…) Tracing rivers to their sources, getting in touch with the nerves of Mother Earth; jumping from rock to rock, feeling the life of them, learning the songs of them, panting in whole-souled exercise, and rejoicing in deep, long-drawn breaths of pure wildness.” —John Muir in Our National Parks
