Stacey Levy was born to coach. Growing up in Falmouth, Massachusetts, Stacey’s future was defined by the spirit of teamwork, a love of competition, and the influence of countless coaches and educators.
Considered one of the best student-athletes ever to come from Cape Cod, Stacey lettered in girls varsity soccer, and both indoor and outdoor track & field, and was inducted into the Falmouth High School Hall of Fame.
At the University of Vermont, Stacey earned her bachelor of science in physical education with nutritional sciences and athletic training and was again a three-sport letter winner for soccer and track & field.
Upon graduating, and while teaching at Thayer Academy in Massachusetts, Stacey went on to Boston University where she earned a master of education in counseling with a specialization in sport and exercise psychology along with a certificate of advanced graduate study in counseling.
Stacey has been an educator and coach for 20 years at the elementary, middle, and high school levels. Before becoming Somerset’s full time associate director, she taught Physical Education and Health & Wellness and coached a variety of sports ranging from varsity girls soccer to middle school basketball. Stacey lives in Denver, Colorado with her husband Corey, daughter Sydney, and son Jack. She has been at Somerset since camp opened in 2018.
“I feel so strongly about providing girls with leadership roles and fostering their self-confidence and ability to take risks. I am passionate about positive psychology, sportsmanship, and empowerment, and I can’t wait to watch our campers try all the incredible activities that camp has to offer.”
Andi Weingarten was born in the Philadelphia suburbs and began her first summer of overnight camp just ten days after her 7th birthday. She immediately fell in love with the entire camp experience from hikes in the Maine and New Hampshire mountains to friendships, waterskiing, landsports, arts and crafts, swimming in the lake, sailing, and living with her peers. After spending eight summers as a camper, Andi spent the next five summers working at a day camp before returning to Maine to work at the same overnight camp she attended as a child.
Andi attended the University of Wisconsin and Temple Law School after which she practiced law until her oldest daughter was born. She currently lives in Tokyo with her husband, Neil, and their two children. Andi always dreamed of returning to camp and feels so fortunate for the opportunity to share her passion for camp with the Somerset family. She has been at Somerset since camp opened in 2018.
“Camp was the greatest gift that my parents gave me,” Andi says. “Learning to live outside of your comfort zone, be flexible and live by camp rules helped me transition to college dorm life. Having camp friends all over the country helped expose me to different cultures and ways of life. I am most excited about helping an entire new generation of campers at Somerset create a culture and traditions that will last for years to come.”
Katie Kaufman grew up in Newton, Massachusetts, but she spent most of her childhood summers at overnight camp in New Hampshire. She credits a big part of who she is today to the friendships and leadership opportunities of camp. In 1999, she was a Color War captain and helped lead the yellow team (Negev) to victory. Embarrassingly, she continues to try to weave this into conversation over two decades later.
Katie grew up playing sports, and though she loved the physicality in playing soccer, field hockey, and softball, she found a more profound connection in the camaraderie of being part of a team.
Upon graduating from Indiana University, Katie sought out experiences that would allow her to work with other individuals who had a shared goal of working to help more vulnerable populations. In Americorps, she traveled with a team of 12 young adults as they worked to rebuild areas in the Gulf that were destroyed by Hurricane Katrina. Though she quickly learned that she did not have the skills to pursue a career in building houses, she loved living in other areas of the country, and her eclectic teammates quickly became family. Her position among teammates as a peer mediator solidified her decision to go back to school to earn a master’s in social work from Denver University.
After graduate school, Katie honed her skills as a clinician, gaining experience working in the fields of substance abuse and child welfare and providing therapy to adolescents in both a hospital setting and as a middle school therapist. Katie returned to the Boston area and started a private practice. She lives in Natick with her husband, Kevin, their silly and spunky 5-year-old, Aria, and their almost 3-year-old, Zoey.
“I understand the magic of camp, and I feel so lucky to be able to be a part of something so special.”
Kevin was born and raised in Boulder, Colorado where he enjoyed spending most of his time outdoors, participated in sports and played the drums. When not hiking, skiing or daydreaming about touring with rock and roll bands, Kevin dedicated much of his time to gymnastics, training and competing at the national level.
After attending the University of Oregon where he received his degree in Journalism and Communication (and where he found his way onto fields and courts as the Oregon Duck mascot), he moved to New York City to work in the film and television industry. After eight years of production coordination and management, Kevin switched careers and went into teaching, where he hoped to find more fulfillment in his work. He received his master’s degree in childhood education while teaching fourth grade in Brooklyn.
Today, Kevin is in his tenth year as an educator, teaching middle school technology classes in Dedham, MA, just outside of Boston. He also provides coaching for other educators and administrators. His motto for his students has always been “Be Your Best Self”, and he has brought that mentality to Somerset for five summers.
“What the world needs now more than ever are fierce females who aren’t afraid to stand up for themselves or each other. Through kindness, new skills and some healthy competition, I look forward to making Camp Somerset a place where young women can round out their identities and go forth with confidence in whatever they choose to do.”
Kevin lives in Natick, Massachusetts with his wife, Katie, and his two daughters, Aria and Zoey.
Holley Black was born in New Hampshire but moved to South Carolina at a young age. Nevertheless, she found her way back to New England, spending time with her family on Sebago Lake. There, she fell in love with Maine summers, tubing, kneeboarding, and hanging out around the campfire.
Growing up at day camps helped Holley foster relationships, pushed her outside of her comfort zone, and eventually drew her to work in a residential camp environment. “I have seen firsthand the influence that Somerset has on young girls. It is a unique environment where you do not have to sensor your quirks and interests, but they are celebrated instead. Camp has become my safe place where I can leave the world at the gate and be the best version of myself, and I know that the campers can do the same.”
Holley graduated from Winthrop University, with a BS in Human Nutrition with a concentration in Chronic Disease Prevention and a double minor in Biology and Health. If she ever leaves camp, she intends to become a Physician Assistant and work with pediatrics. Holley returns for her seventh summer in 2025. She spent two summers as a division head and was also a culinary arts instructor, head coach of the Ladybugs in 2020, and Blue Captain for Somer Cup in 2022.
“Playing team sports taught me important life skills such as how to be a team player, communication, losing with grace, and maintaining friendships no matter the outcome of the game. Those same lessons are why I love Somerset’s culture and values, and what I hope to help instill in the campers every day.”
Clara McKeever was born and raised in Ireland, where she and her three siblings spent almost every day training and competing with the local swimming and water polo club. She later became a volunteer coach and swim teacher, developing a passion for teaching kids.
After camp in 2022, her first taste of living and working abroad, she decided to spend the winter season working at a ski resort in Italy, where she learned to ski and snowboard. Clara now lives in Scotland, where she studies Economics and International Relations at the University of St Andrews. She fills her free time playing on the waterpolo, netball and Gaelic football teams.
At Somerset, Clara has been a swim teacher, a boat driver, and an assistant league coach for the winning fire team. She was the Assistant Head of Aquatics for two summers, and will be returning this year as Head of Aquatics.
She brought her younger sister to camp in 2024. They worked on the waterfront together for 2 summers, and Shona will be joining the head staff this year!
“Somerset is like nowhere else I’ve ever been, where kids and counsellors can build their confidence and feel content to fully be themselves. I have made lifelong friends at camp, and I can’t wait to create even more memories this summer”
Jess Barton was born in Jersey, Channel Islands, before moving to Singapore and eventually settling in Australia, where she currently lives. Growing up by the beach, she developed a deep love for the water, which led her to compete in surf lifesaving events. Now, she oversees the delivery of a beach safety program and coaches a swimming team.
Returning for her third summer at Somerset, Jess will be one of two Division Heads for the Upper Deer Trail. In her previous two summers, she was apart of the waterfront team and served as co-captain of Luigi in 2024.
“Somerset holds such a special place in my heart. It’s incredible to watch the girls express themselves freely and grow in confidence. I cant wait for another somer at my favourite place.”
Callum Hastings was born and raised in a small town in the Scottish Borders, Scotland. He now lives with his fiancé, Haillie, who also works at Somerset. Growing up, he loved playing outside and spending time with his brother and friends. He has a passion for camping and hiking, often taking weekend trips with friends to recharge—completely off the grid.
In school, Callum excelled in mathematics and also had a strong interest in sports, particularly rugby, competing in games, competitions, and leagues every weekend. Over the past four years, he has worked as a highway maintenance operative and admin assistant.
This summer, Callum is excited to step into his new role as Operations Manager at Somerset after spending the past two summers across the lake at Camp Manitou. At Manitou, he worked as a general counselor, lifeguard, fishing instructor, and boat driver. His time there helped build his confidence, and he cherished the experience of working with campers and making lifelong friendships.
“Moving over to Somerset is something I am really excited for. I can’t wait to experience a different side of competition, develop new skills, and immerse myself in a fresh environment. I’m eager to take on this new role, embrace more responsibilities, and grow within what I know is a great community.”

Erika was born and raised just outside of Chicago, in Oak Park. She has always loved imagining and creating, and she brings a playful and joyful energy into everything she does.
While growing up in the suburbs of a big city did not offer many opportunities to explore in the great outdoors, Erika found solace in playing in her family’s garden and in the many nearby city parks. She spent childhood summers in Ohio where her grandma helped to foster her love for crafting and creating. It was with her encouragement that she started to attend and participate in arts & crafts fairs.
She spent a great portion of her childhood attending Science Fiction & Fantasy conventions with her family where she discovered a love for costuming, imagination, and play. It was also here that she started to learn the special magic of being in communities that encourage and empower you to explore who you are and what brings you joy.
Although her love of nature has always inspired her art and storytelling, it wasn’t until she attended college at The Ohio State University, that she was able to get out into nature and explore. She quickly discovered a love for hiking expeditions, kayaking, and tent camping. These experiences have greatly impacted her life course and were part of what inspired her work at camps.
She began with working at day camps in Ohio, eventually becoming a supervisor for the youngest campers. Upon graduating with her Bachelor of Science in Early Childhood Development, Erika continued to work at camps in the summer and helped coordinate after school programming during the school year.
After spending the last three years living in New Orleans, working at a private school and basking in the magic and vibrant creativity in the Crescent City, Erika is back living and working in Oak Park. She’s excited to be reconnecting to her hometown with a new perspective and finding creative inspiration in the untouched wilds of the greater Chicagoland area.
Erika is thrilled to be back in 2026 for her seventh summer as head of creative arts.
“My discovery of Somerset was so serendipitous and I quickly felt right at home surrounded by the pine trees swaying in the wind. I feel so blessed to be part of a team that helps to empower, encourage, and inspire young women to make mistakes, find new ways of expressing themselves, and cultivate more joy, imagination, and creativity. It is a dream come true.”
Kat Chambless has lived in Florida her entire life. She was born and raised in the same rural small town of Middleburg, about an hour south of Jacksonville. Growing up in the heat didn’t lend itself well to developing a love for the outdoors, but Kat has always been fascinated with gardening and edible plants and the foods you could make with them. She spent her childhood helping her mother and grandmother in the garden and the kitchen, picking oranges for fresh juice, making impromptu picnics, canning foods, and caring for endless tomato plants and pepper bushes.
In high school, Kat was a member of her school’s culinary competition team, attending several competitions across Northeast Florida. Post high school, Kat went on to attend Johnson and Wales University of North Miami and graduated cum laude with her Bachelor’s degree in Culinary Arts summer of 2021. She works as a recipe developer, freelance food and entertainment journalist, and media specialist (fancy for librarian) for a local high school in her hometown. When she’s not at camp or working, Kat loves to critique cooking reality shows, read endless young adult fantasy novels (and sometimes write her own), and hoard dice for tabletop games.
Kat first came to Somerset for her senior internship as a Culinary Arts counselor in 2021, with little experience in the camp world. “I had only ever attended smaller camps for a few days to a week at most, and Camp Somerset was a huge culture shock for me. I never expected to love camp as much as I do, but I can’t imagine being elsewhere. There’s such a great sense of family at camp, and I’ve made friends and connections that will last me a lifetime. I’m so thrilled to be back as Head of Culinary and continue teaching my favorite subject in the greatest place in Maine!”

Growing up as a military child, Josie Weilemann spent much of her childhood moving across the country. She spent a lot of her youth outdoors, exploring new places through hiking and camping. With a deep love for travel, she is passionate about seeing as much of the world as she can.
Currently, Josie calls Leavenworth, Kansas, home. She attended Pittsburg State University in Pittsburg, Kansas, where she rediscovered her love for the outdoors and her passion for sharing that with others. During her college years, Josie worked with local schools to organize outdoor programs for kids, giving them opportunities to enjoy nature without technology. She graduated in the fall of 2022 with a degree in Recreational Therapy.
After graduation, Josie moved to Utah to teach adaptive ski lessons to individuals with physical and cognitive disabilities. Though this was her first experience with skiing, it quickly became one of her favorite hobbies. During the off-season, she worked as a Recreational Therapist at a behavioral health center for teenage boys. When she’s not working, Josie spends much of her time outdoors—paddleboarding, rock climbing, and volunteering for adaptive climbing lessons.
In August 2024, Josie made the move to Texas to take on a new role as an instructor at the Outdoor School. There, her love for rock climbing and ropes courses grew even more as she spent her days facilitating courses and teaching outdoor education classes. Josie is passionate about helping others step outside their comfort zones and experience the world in new and exciting ways.
This will be Josie’s second summer at Somerset and is moving from Head of Adventure to her new role as Head of Camping and Outdoor Education.
