In 2016, when Erinn first arrived at Camp Dudley with her son, Spencer #24268, she knew that it was a special place. The warmth of the Dudley community was as strong as the July sun, and the entire family felt welcomed and embraced. Since that first summer, Camp Dudley and Camp Kiniya have become “home” for the Lewis family. Spencer’s sisters, Celeste #25468 and Noelle #26668, are across the lake, beneath the pines of Camp Kiniya, and Erinn is serving her 4th year as a member of the Board of Trustees.

Erinn works for Freddie Mac in Northern Virginia, specializing in financial transactions and risk management. Erinn commenced her career as a corporate attorney, practicing in large law firms in New York City and Washington, DC. She earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in African and African American Studies from Emory University and a Juris Doctorate degree from the University of Pennsylvania Law School. 

Erinn’s husband, Mark, works for the U.S. State Department, so the family has lived in South Africa, Trinidad, Kenya and Hong Kong. Erinn worked as an investment banker in Johannesburg, South Africa. She also earned an elementary education certification and taught at the International School of Kenya and the Hong Kong International School. In addition, Erinn served as Vice-Chairperson of the Board of Directors at the International School of Kenya.

Erinn is originally from New Rochelle, New York, and the family currently lives in northern Virginia.

In reflecting on her Board service, Erinn says, “I fundamentally believe in the motto ‘The Other Fellow First’, and fully embrace Camp’s mission “to develop moral, personal, physical and leadership skills in the spirit of fellowship and fun, enabling boys and girls to lead lives characterized by devotion to others.” It is an honor and a privilege to contribute to the Camp Dudley and Camp Kiniya communities by serving on the Board of Trustees.”
