9 years as a camper

2nd year on staff

I absolutely cannot wait to be back in the magical mountains of Greystone! As a camper, Greystone helped me to find who I was at my core, who I wanted to be, and what God wanted for me in my life. And oh the fun and laughter we had along the way! I developed a lifetime love for kayaking, exploration, synchronized swimming, crafts, silliness, so many things, but most importantly, Jesus! I am honored to be there to witness and guide that discovery for the beautiful campers of 2025. I have two daughters, ages 7 and 9, who will have their first year together as campers this year. We can’t WAIT to see you all!

“Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.” Philippians 4:8

Things that I love: Animals, yoga, reading, silliness of any kind

When I have an hour of free time, I like to… Talk a stroll

Best camp tradition? Singing at mealtimes!

Item that I MUST bring to Camp with me: Rain boots

The one thing that makes any day better: A little afternoon rain on a tin roof

The camp food I can’t wait to eat is… The bread yummmm

My favorite dad joke: Where does the general keep his armies? In his Sleevies!

My go-to pump up song: That’s my King by Cece Winans

Favorite childhood book: Harry Potter

My lovey (favorite stuffed animal, blanket, etc.) growing up was a…. Teddy Bear and a Kitty cat and a Robbit named John Bloomer (they were all campers with me)

I wanted to work at Junior Camp because… I love being part of something so special and fun!

The best thing about camp will be… The pace, the smell, the smiling faces, the lack of technology ha!
