Steven Lubrano has been elected to the board of the Hanover Conservancy, a nonprofit that protects land and water and manages trails on more than 1,000 acres of conserved land.
Lubrano, executive director of infrastructure and operations at Dartmouth’s Tuck School of Business, takes the seat held by Stanley Colla, former vice president of alumni affairs at Dartmouth, who is stepping down from the board after eight years.
Conservancy president Heidi Trimarco noted that the Conservancy was founded by members of the Dartmouth community and Lubrano’s election “continues a longtime tradition of seating college faculty and staff on its board.”
A former chair of the Howe Library Corp. Board, Lubrano and his wife, Allegra Lubrano, own 500 acres of conserved land at Huntington Hill in Hanover with trails open to the public.
Bar Harbor Bank & Trust has tapped Upper Valley banker Jessica Hooper as assistant vice president and mortgage loan originator. She will be based out of Bar Harbor’s regional Newport, N.H., headquarters and focusing on securing home mortgages for clients in Newport, New London, Sunapee, Grantham and Claremont.
Hooper, a Lempster, N.H., resident, joins Bar Harbor from Claremont Savings Bank, where she most recently was assistant vice president and mortgage loan originator. She began her banking career at the former Lake Sunapee Bank, which later was acquired by Bar Harbor.
