Aimee Lerner

Aimee is the Marketing Manager at Foundation for Jewish Camp. Originally hailing from swanky Las Vegas, she made her way to the east coast for college, acquiring a BA in the History of Urban Development from Columbia University and a BA in Modern Jewish Studies from List College. After first experiencing camp as a young girl at Camp Foxtail, Aimee was a camper and Madornik at Camp Ramah in California. Upon moving to the east coast, she joined the community at Camp Ramah in the Poconos and held a record number of different titles while on staff there. She credits her time at camp for keeping her down to earth, providing her with a wealth of silly songs to sing to her nephews, and cultivating lifelong friendships with exceptional people.
