1st year on staff
I’m originally from Michigan but I’m thrilled to spend a summer in North Carolina! I just graduated from Calvin University this May, and am excited for all of the new adventures to come- starting off with a summer at Greystone! Come hang out at High Ropes with me!!
“You have searched me, Lord, and you know me….Before a word is on my tongue you, Lord, know it completely. You hem me in behind and before, and you lay your hand upon me. Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence?… If I say, “Surely the darkness will hide me and the light become night around me,” even the darkness will not be dark to you; the night will shine like the day, for darkness is as light to you. For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.” Psalm 139
Personal Interests: All-things-outdoors (especially mountain biking + rock climbing), laughing, running, baking, longgg conversations, painting, and writing to name just a few…
When I have an hour of free time, I like to… Probably practice handstands (I WILL get it someday!)
The emoji that describes me: The blushy smiley face with the jazz hands or the purple pigtail girl who looks like she just got a great idea!
The one thing that makes any day better: Orange juice, probably a hug, and maybe getting to see a cute dog
The best book I’ve read this year: Just Mercy by Bryan Stevenson
My guilty pleasure: A well-curated playlist
I wanted to work at Greystone because… I’m a huuuuge fan of Jesus, being outside, making friends, and learning new skills!
The best thing about camp will be… The people, I’m sure.
