Eva Dagman (Beaver)
Eva has always been a passionate nature lover and has been
camping with family since a very young age. She comes from a
multi-cultural background, having been born in Israel to Russian
parents and then as an early teen immigrating to CA. Her love for
the outdoors and travel inspired her to study Physical Geography at
San Francisco State University, which then led her to travel the
world independently for a year and a half, teaching English and
volunteering at various farms around the world. Teaching
continued to be a huge part of her life as she went on to
become a private English tutor in Australia and then a wheel pottery
instructor in California.

Hannah Sue Hulpke (Poppy)

Hannah Sue grew up in Long Beach, California as a city girl. She

started out as a classroom teacher and wanted to expand beyond the

four walls. With a passion for hiking, camping, and backpacking, she
loves to help others see the wonders of the outdoors and share ways

we can help respect and protect our wild spaces for generations to come.

Having recently earned her B.S. in Recreation Administration, she is

excited to join the education team at S.O.S.!

Leilani Traynor-Kilroy (Blackberry)

Leilani grew up in Reno, Nevada, and graduated from Gonzaga

University with a BA in Environmental Studies. She enjoys spending

time outdoors, especially taking short solo hikes and anything that

lets her spend time at the beach or in the water. She loves to read,

cook, and to catch up on TV she’s inevitably missed. She’s worked at

an outdoor-oriented summer camp since 2017, which is what really

convinced her that she liked working with kids in the great outdoors.

Regina Lobner (Crow)
Regina was born and raised in Wisconsin, and recently got her BS in
Environmental Education and Interpretation at University of
Wisconsin-Stevens Point. Through her work experiences she’s
learned that she loves sharing with people her passion for wildlife
and all things nature. She’s gotten the opportunity to teach about
everything from turkey vultures to sea turtles during her past
internships and is so excited to learn more about the Sierra Nevada
region and its unique ecology and history through SOS. When she is
not out exploring and looking for birds, she enjoys reading,
working on her artwork or cooking a new dish to try.

Sara Lynch (Moss)

Sara grew up in the city of Chicago, IL and was exposed to camping through her very active Girl Scout troop. Sara's appreciation for the outdoors and passion for girl empowerment led her to become a resident summer camp counselor in 2018. As a backpacking guru, Sara guided many trips through the Midwest and more recently, Colorado. Sara received her B.A. in Elementary Education and plans on becoming a third-grade teacher. Sara can't wait to explore the Stanislaus Forest and make new friends with the students and staff at SOS.
