Tricia Vanacore

Tricia was born and raised on Cape Cod and has been a regular visitor to Nantucket since childhood. After attending Dartmouth College, she pursued a career in tech, working for Lotus Development Corp. and Avid Technology in Boston, New York, and Dallas before settling into Darien, CT with her husband, Mark, and their four children. Tricia has served on a multitude of boards: The Children’s School in Stamford, CT; Greens Farms Academy in Westport, CT; and The Island School in Eleuthera, The Bahamas. Her service with all three of those included significant time as board chair. She also continues to serve on the board of the Adam J. Lewis Academy in Bridgeport, CT, a privately funded school that provides steeply discounted education to needy families. Having recently become a year-round resident of Nantucket, Tricia has been engaged in regular volunteering at the Food Pantry, the Warming Place, and NISHA’s Pet Partner Therapy program and is looking forward to further helping members of the local community.
