Lisa Brackett, Trustee
Lisa grew up in New Harbor, Maine and started coming to Monhegan Island in 1996 as a day tripper. She only visited a couple of times that summer but it was enough to know that she needed more. The following few summers she came more often and in November of 2000 bought her house on Fish Beach. In 2004 she became a year round resident. She initially rented the top half of her home for weekly rentals in the summer, along with monthly winter rentals at a much lower cost. Seeing the need for year round housing, she turned to a year round rental which she maintains to this day.
Lisa has done a number of jobs over the years, including running the Monhegan Store, baking her famous donuts, and currently runs the Bait Bag food truck at the brewery.
She has loved Monhegan ever since first stepping onto the dock. She is grateful to be able to live here and to be a Trustee of MISCA and is passionate about finding year round housing for others who love the island as much as she does.
Marc Giroux, Trustee
Marc was born and raised in Central Maine and somehow didn't discover Monhegan Island until attending a wedding there in 2021. It was love at first sight and he purchased a cottage in 2022 becoming a full time summer resident.
Marc has an extensive background in Residential Real Estate having worked many years in downtown Boston and Los Angeles, CA where he was a SVP with Sotheby's International Realty serving as Brokerage Manager for an office of 100 agents. He has extensive knowledge of the many aspects of real estate having worked on residential rentals and sales, investment properties, new development and affordable housing.
Now retired, Marc is excited to bring his knowledge and time to the Monhegan Community where he recognizes the need for smart future development that will preserve the uniqueness and character of Monhegan while at the same time ensuring long term, year round viability and housing for all who wish to call Monhegan home.
