April Salas

April is a phenomenon. She is a wife and mother of four young children with two jobs and multiple Board roles. She is the director of the Revers Center for Energy at the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth AND the Director of Sustainability for the Town of Hanover, NH. She is on the Board of Clean Energy NH and others. She is a thought partner with a team of us who have created last year’s NH Climate and Clean Energy Youth Town Hall, training and engaging NH students to ask probing, thoughtful questions of the 2020 presidential candidates in one forum the week before the NH primary. This year, students and young professionals engaged with the Biden-Harris administration officials, the complete Congressional delegation, scientists, business leaders and equity thought leaders.

What truly makes April worthy of this honor from the NH Women’s Foundation is who she is a person and citizen. April kind, compassionate and wise. She is a cheerleader for her husband, her children, the young people she works with at Tuck, and for all of us who know her. She takes on huge challenges and typically makes it look easy, while making people feel great about what they’re doing. She stayed on course during the pandemic and worked from home while juggling the needs of her school age children with a husband who was finishing up medical school. She is indeed a gracious, lovely human being. A phenom, indeed!
