A native of Baltimore, Emily’s affiliation with the Beth Tfiloh family dates back to the 1970’s and encompasses the shul, school, Hebrew School, and camp. Since 2003, Emily has been a teacher at Beth Tfiloh Dahan Community School, a place, and a job that she holds near and dear to her heart. She taught in the PreSchool for 20 years before moving on in 2023 to help teach Kindergarten in the BT Lower School, which she does currently. Over these many years, she has taught, and continues to teach, many of our campers. Emily attended BT Camps from Unit Aleph through our LT program and during her many years as a staff member, she worked in a variety areas and capacities, providing her a broad and unique perspective on the camp as a whole. In 2021, Emily became our Business Manager and shortly thereafter, also became the Assistant Director of Family Experience and Staff Engagement. In March 2024, it was a natural fit for Emily to become our Interim Director and, as of September 2024 she officially became our Camp Director. Part of Emily’s past professional profile includes managing retail establishments and medical practices. Her years of experience in these areas and her passion for all things BT, combined with her positivity, high energy, sensitivity, confidentiality, attention to detail, and excellent organizational and communication skills make her, both, a strong asset to BT Camps and leader of our team. When she’s not working, Emily loves spending time with her husband, Scott, their children, Ryan and Shayna, and their American Cocker Spaniel, Lacie. As a family, they enjoy traveling, attending sporting events and concerts, playing tennis and pickleball, running, biking, volunteering, celebrating holidays, and getting together with other family members and friends.
