Hi Greg! Tell us about yourself
Hey parents and future campers! I am very proud to be the co founder and camp director of FOKUS camps. I grew up in a family of 7 kids, 5 chinchillas, and one crazy dog on the coast of England and later in the mountains of upstate New York. When I´m not at camp, I love all kinds of sports and travelling the world.
What is your experience with camps so far?
For the last 10 years I have been privileged to work in camps and with kids around the globe including managing one of the biggest English camps in Germany for three years before starting FOKUScamps.
Why start FOKUS camps?
Very simple - To create the best possible camp experience for the great kids, camp guides, and families we work with. Everything we do at FOKUS camps is done with this mindset.
Why do you choose to work with kids and teens?
Anyone who has been to one of my camps before will tell you that I am the biggest kid there and they are right. I like to get involved in everything! Don´t be surprised to see me playing football, pranking the kids, or leading the charge in a game of capture the flag. I absolutely love working with kids, their honesty, curiosity and enthusiasm for life inspires me every day and helping them reach their full potential is incredibly rewarding.
What is important for you as camp director?
I take the responsibility of being a camp director very seriously and work very hard with my team of trusted counselors to create a family like environment where every child is safe and cared for so that they can have an amazing week.
What is your common vision with FOKUS?
I jumped at the opportunity to work with FOKUS because they have the same vision of a high quality and personal approach to camp as me. Our vision is to create something truly wonderful for the kids we work with. Every detail of the program has been thought through to give your child an amazing week of fun, friends and English.
Anything else you'd like to say?
Just a huge thank you to all the parents and kids who come to our camps. You guys allow me and the team to do a job we absolutely love. We can't wait to see you in camp again!!!
