Bella is currently an undergraduate student studying anthropology and political science at UCSB, but she is originally from San Francisco, California. Even though she grew up in a city, Bella has always found so much peace and joy from nature and the outdoors, rain or shine. She found her way to OVY ten years ago now, as a camper and has returned every summer since. Since her first year as a camper, Bella has loved OVY for its unique outdoor experiences, community and adventure. Many of her first memories of camp include the massive redwood trees that surrounded and towered over her, making rock paint and silly songs about banana slugs and pizza. But her favorite thing at camp has always been sleeping under the stars, she is now a pro at finding the little and big dipper. Bella loves to create art, hike, tell silly stories and walk along the beach. She is beyond excited to return to camp this year to make more life-long friendships and memories!
