My mom once said, “I feel like we dropped you off at Sky Lake for elementary camp and you never came home.” Considering I’ve spent the last 25 years of my life as program director and then director of Sky Lake, she wasn’t exactly wrong. When not at camp, I love visiting family out of state, impressing my Chinese followers with my chopstick and wok skills, and using Duolingo to further my dreams of becoming a polyglot when I grow up.
