In addition to his JD, he has his AAS in Criminal Justice from Hudson Valley Community College, and his BS in Law and Society from The Sage Colleges. John lives in Waterbury with Miss Madle Mae, his NCAL rescued toy fox terrier mix and Sammy the cat, "the Tortie with a lot of "tude!"
Lynne Eyberg (Vice President)
Lynne Eyberg earned her BA from Denison University and MA in Information and Learning Technologies from the University of Colorado. For the past twenty-five years she has worked in non-profit, corporate, and education sectors. In roles ranging from Project Manager to Account Director and Business Development Manager, Lynne has worked for companies such as HBO, Scholastic, Reader's Digest, Champlain College and several new media agencies. Her non profit experience, focused on development and event planning for cancer research charities and private secondary schools, led her to her involvement with North Country Animal League where she has held the positions of volunteer, fundraising consultant, and now serves as a proud Board Member. Lynne has been a lifelong champion of animal rescue and is the current dog mom of Maisey and Finn.
Terry Itameri-Kinter (Secretary)
Terry and his wife Kristina are long-time supporters of animal shelters, both in Massachusetts where he previously resided, and especially here at NCAL since moving to Stowe in 2011. They have had the privilege of making a cat and half a dozen dogs a part of their family over the past 40 years. The most recent four-legged family member is an older girl with some medical issues, whose story was featured in NCAL's 2017 Annual Fund campaign. Terry retired from a career in industrial business management recently, allowing him time to become more involved with volunteer opportunities in the area. As a member of the NCAL Board, he looks forward to applying his business experience, and his love for animals in need, to help NCAL grow and fulfill its mission.
Jess Russell (Treasurer)
Jess Russell is an active member of the rescue community with a background in finance and accounting. When she's not working for a small local finance group, she's out in the woods with her dogs and hubby, or curled up on the couch with one of their three NCAL alumni rescue cats.
Holly Berry
Holly has been an active shelter volunteer for both San Diego Humane Society and Helen Woodward Animal Center for the past 9 years. With roles in adoptions, animal care, fundraising, emergency response and kitten nursing, she enjoys contributing with hands-on efforts in all facets of the organization, especially when it involves helping customers find forever pets. Holly and her husband bought a home in beloved Stowe 15 years ago and visit from La Jolla every chance they can! A successful career in technology keeps her busy working with global companies. Passionate about working with customers, Holly would like to combine business principles with the business of saving animals' lives to help NCAL continue to thrive!
Tom Hubbs
Tom and Natalie Hubbs moved to Stowe in 2000 from the Philadelphia area, where Tom had been an audit manager for the Government Accountability Office. They arrived with two appropriately-spoiled cats adopted from the Cloucester County (NJ) Animal Shelter. Tom quickly settled into a second "career" as the snow reporter for Stowe Mountain Resort for eleven seasons, and over the years has also served on the Boards of several local organizations; he joined the NCAL board in October 2017. During their time here Natalie and Tom have adopted three cats from NCAL, also appropriately spoiled.

She has been a top performer in the luxury real estate markets of New York City and Lake Tahoe. She is also an accomplished digital marketing and advertising executive who has generated innovative campaigns across multiple competitive global industries for agencies like R/GA, Droga5 and Hill Holliday in New York and Boston. Maggie's love of animals led her to earn a degree in Animal Sciences at the University of Vermont. Over the years she's adopted two dogs (Gizmo and Ellie) and two cats (Montgomery and Inkspot) from NCAL.
