Work Experience

Since I was a freshman in high school I have worked for my old baseball coach Ralph Pacifico at The Montclair Kimberley Academy. These are the two camps that I have been fortunate enough to work over the past seven years.

Little Big League
This camp offers young children the opportunity to work on their baseball skills while still having a fun camp experience. During my early years there I was responsible for the equipment at the camp and would fill in where need be. Now as I have grown and my baseball career has continued I am in charge of my own group and have started to do some front office work with my coach. This past summer I was in charge of the third through sixth grade boys group during the day and would help with the paper work once the official camp day had ended.

STAR CAMP (Sports, Theater, Arts, Recreational)
STAR Camp offers children a once in a lifetime experience. The day set up like a school day, yet instead of schoolwork the day is filled with fun activities. I have always been involved with the sports aspect of the camp, however this past summer I was in charge of my own activity called Old School P.E.. I was also appointed as one of the Public Relations employees. I make sure that local schools and recreational centers have brochures and talk to staff about the opportunities that the camp offers.
