Casey Selden

Casey first went away to summer camp when she was 8 years old. She's never looked back. She has been working at different camps on both coasts of the U. S. for 14 years now and at Quaker wilderness adventure programs for 11. In between these summers, she's earned a bachelors degree in Geography and Geology from Mary Washington College, spent 3 years working as a teacher naturalist and director for an outdoor education program, traveled and lived abroad and most recently spent two years as the Education Manager at a Children's Museum. She has been co-directing Sierra Friends Camp since it's first summer, in 2005. Casey counts among her camp-related skills a passion for building communities, expertise in the artform of getting dirty and a gift for cooking gourmet food over a camping stove. When not at camp, she lives in San Francisco.
