Meet the Camp Directors
Summer camp and the outdoors have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember.
I’ve had the privilege of being camp director at Camp Piperwood, Camp Seven Hills and Camp Beech-Wood.
I have over 35 years of experience working at camps and spent 35 years in elementary education as a teacher and principal.
I also enjoy reading, Broadway musicals, all kinds of music and time in the outdoors!
I have been a Girl Scout since I was old enough to be a Brownie and began my career at camp at the age of 16. As a camper, I spent 9 summers at camp and started working at Camp Seven Hills as a kitchen aide and have held many positions leading up to my current position of Camp Director. In the summer of 2021, I was honored for 25 years on staff and this coming summer it will be 35 years total as camper and staff member of Camp Seven Hills.
I attended SUNY College at Brockport for a Bachelor of Science-Teacher Certification and Plymouth State for my Master’s Degree in Education-Adventure Education. During the year, I am a Physical Education Teacher with Greece Central School District, a position that I have held for 19 years.
The best part of camp for me is watching our Seven Hills campers learn and grow each summer and I take pride in knowing that I had a hand in helping mentor/guide some of them in becoming camp counselors of Camp Seven Hills.
I have been the camp director at Windy for five summers since 2015. I have a team of amazing volunteers that consists of moms, leaders, high school Girl Scouts, and avid outdoors enthusiasts who love to help out at camp.
Along with being a camp director, I am a troop leader, service unit manager, and SUCO director. Outside of camp I enjoy time with my family and friends. My bucket list in life is to visit all 63 of the National Parks. I feel very strongly that Girl Scouts, especially outdoor programming, is essential in empowering girls.
At Camp Windy Meadows we strive to build confidence in our girls and teach them strong leadership skills. I am looking forward to another fun and exciting summer at Camp Windy Meadows.
I have returned to my camp directing roots as the director of our volunteer-run Day Camp at the Jamestown Service Center. From 1969 - 1978 I directed Camp Timbercrest and am a Girl Scout Lifetime member with 75 years of active membership. I was the Director of Camping Services and Field Executive for the legacy Chautauqua Area Girl Scout Council and after that an active volunteer serving on a variety of committees and as an outdoor trainer. I am the retired executive director of the Chautauqua Blind Association.
I am passionate about helping to make sure that Girl Scouting is maintained in western New York so that girls today will have the opportunity to become women who have positive impact on whatever community they live in. I believe that day camp is an important step in creating girls of courage, confidence, and character who will make the world a better place.
