Meet Emma

  • Comfortable with pets

I have recently returned from Ireland where I worked for a children's nonprofit organization called The Barretstown Gang Camp (www.barretstown.org). My role at camp was the Photography Activity Leader, this involved developing and leading a multitude of activities ranging from developing photos in a darkroom, science experiments, team building and cooking activities to leading faux ninja training, dancing before and after every meal and acting as a variety of characters during the themed weeks. Though fun, silliness and imagination often took the main stage at camp safety, inclusion, accessibility and intentionality were behind everything we, as staff, did. It was an amazing growth opportunity and I left Ireland with a equipped wit magic tricks, experiments, songs, dances and art projects ready to share. Prior to working at Barretstown and The Hole in the Wall Gang Camp (http://www.holeinthewallgang.org/), I worked with two children's theater companies in Evanston. I enjoy dress-up, make Read more believe and dramatic renditions of children's stories. I have lived abroad for several years in Europe, Africa and Asia and have experience working with international youth. CPR certified. Just moved back to Evanston, and do not have a vehicle.
