About Us

Girls Dream Out Loud provides summer and after-school programs for 6- to 16-year-old-girls. We are a
close-knit group, passionate about gender-affirming opportunities and creative, project-based learning.
Blue Tree is our campus-based summer camp for older girls. Curious Jane, for younger girls, is our day
camp and after-school program held at many wonderful schools around the Northeast and growing.

Girls stretch their creativity, strengthen their voices, find new approaches to problem-solving and learning,
build confidence, grow socially, have fun and DREAM OUT LOUD!

Creating these programs has been a dream of my own. I earned my BA from Yale and my Masters of
Industrial Design from Pratt, where I returned to teach. While in school, I spent my summers directing a
variety of all-girls camps. After having two girls of my own, I founded Girls Dream Out Loud, Inc. I am a
designer, teacher and camp founder, but I am a mother first. My daughters - and your daughters - are the
greatest inspiration for what I do!

Blue Tree is a natural extension of my experience with teen girls. It is fresh and engaging. The campus
setting provides a perfect backdrop. Curious Jane, simply put, is something I would have loved as a girl,
and it is what I want for my daughters - to be curious and explore and have fun. No matter what type of
school your daughter attends, there is a place for an all-girls experience. I hope it will be with us!
