Kaitlyn

Executive Director (she/they)

Kaitlyn and her adorable and hilarious service dog, Nectarine, love spending the Spring, Summer, and Fall at Unicamp, where they feel at home. Kaitlyn absolutely loves Unicamp’s Nature and community.

She holds a Bachelor of Community Development with Environmental Studies from Acadia University and is pursuing an MA of International Studies at Simon Fraser University. She has excelled in leadership, research, community engagement, and advocacy roles with the UN and universities.

Kaitlyn’s degrees and positions support her ability to excel at Unicamp. “I believe in Fairies! I do! I do! I do!” – Kaitlyn

Vera

Bookkeeper

I have enjoyed working for Unicamp as a bookkeeper for the last 12 years and have witnessed many changes over the course of those years as we evolve and improve. Some of those earlier years entailed driving to Unicamp or Toronto to work in office and more recently working from home.

Although I don’t often have the opportunity to communicate with unicampers in person I feel like I know many through our email connections. I look forward to my annual visits to participate in the Sacred Circle Dance weekend, which also gives me the opportunity to personally meet the staff and totally de-stress in this amazing spiritual environment.

I am always blown away by the magic of our beautiful natural habitat and how invested everyone is in maintaining and improving our camp and programs for current and future generations.

Joanna

Camp Director (she/her)

Joanna has been attending camp since 2009 when she started as a camp counselor. She has enjoyed many summers at camp since then in various staff roles and as a family camper. This is her 3rd summer in the Camp Director role.

Joanna’s family is very involved at Unicamp and it has become a 2nd home to all of them. Joanna’s partner (Luc) and their 5 kids have made many amazing connections in the Unicamp community and look forward to creating more memories.

Joanna’s background in Child & Youth Work is what drives her to making it better every year for our young staff and campers.

See you all at the beach, or at the dining hall for coffee!

Luc

Property Manager (he/him)

Luc was convinced by Joanna in 2014 to come up for a work weekend because she thought he “might find something to do.” He’s still here! (haha). He enjoys keeping busy at Unicamp, loves the community, and is happy to be there with his partner and 5 kids.
