Brittney Akpobiyeri

Hometown: Nashville, NC

Experience with Children: I have previous experience as a junior counselor at past camps, have volunteered at Frank Porter Graham Elementary school for the past year, volunteered at other elementary schools, and babysat.

Goals for Summer and Career: My goals for the summer are to: Have fun! Meet lots of new kids, make lots of new friends, and learn some science. My goals for my career are to attend PA school and become a pediatric PA. Also, I want to start a foundation for Sickle Cell research and better care/resources for people (especially children) in Nigeria. I would like to start a summer camp for kids with Sickle Cell in Nigeria.

Hobbies/Fun Fact: I love to read, play violin, go camping/do outdoor recreation, travel, exercise, eat, ride my bike, and participate in all things Harry Potter. I have a very unique laugh and all campers should prepare to hear it! I can also say my ABC's backwards.

Why did you choose to work at Morehead? I chose to work at Morehead because I love the atmosphere and the opportunities to grow and develop. I like the sense of education and friendship here and I'm excited to get invovled with summer camp. I can't wait to meet new kids and learn new things alongside them! I'm ready for a summer adventure!
