Evelyn Riggan is our Head Director at Oak Tree. Prior to Oak Tree, Evelyn held positions at camps in California, Jamaica, and the UK. Her focus and attentiveness to the joys and interests of children sets her apart and keep her engaged and intuitive in her position.

Evelyn graduated with a BA in Business Entrepreneurship and Innovation, and an MAT in Early Childhood Education, and is currently completing her MEd in Educational Administration and Policy.

At the top of her priority list are her three children, Darren, Elena, and Esmé. They remind her daily of the importance of a smile and grow her strengths in patience and the art of negotiation.

Evelyn has a passion for the outdoors. Family hikes, countless hours at the pool, and the rejuvenating benefits of a long walk, Evelyn enjoys rooting herself and her family in exploration and the adventures that could come as a result.

Evelyn is thrilled to begin the adventures at Oak Tree Camps, particularly excited about all the faces she will get to see on a daily basis. The laughter of a child can be one of the most rewarding sounds and she is beyond grateful for the moments she will get to share with all your children. This summer will be AWESOME!
