Caitlyn, 22, grew up in Dallas, Texas, and is a recent graduate from Ole Miss with a degree in Business. In Oxford, she was a member of the National Society of Leadership and Success, volunteered for Operation Kindness, and is a Provost Scholar. Her experience with teenagers comes from her time working as a camp counselor for Camp Longhorn, coaching youth basketball in Dallas, and lifeguarding. Caitlyn went on three Moondance trips as a student and received raving endorsements from her trip leaders on Belize + Costa Rica, Spain + Morocco, and Hawaiian Islands. After great experiences as a student, she wanted to become a leader herself, ultimately leading the Maui and Fiji trips the past two summers! Caitlyn has a talent for encouragement, energy, and enthusiasm–and is always laughing! We are big fans of Caitlyn Whitlock here at Moondance, and we are so excited for her to inspire her students this summer!

Additionally, he was part of the highly selective Leeds Scholars Program, demonstrating his dedication to leadership and academic excellence. Tyler is energetic, intelligent, and always ready for adventure, and we couldn’t be more excited to have him on board this summer!
