Young Adult Leadership Council

Camilla Tarpey-Schwed is a student at Whitman College, where she plays on the varsity tennis team and is a chapter leader and mentor for Eye to Eye. She studies rhetoric and psychology because she wants to advance LD educational policy. She is excited to expand her knowledge about LD policy and advocacy, both nationally and locally, in order to destigmatize the LD label, properly inform educators, and empower LD students to be proud and confident in their LDs. During her free time, she enjoys reading (especially books about LDs and education), writing, blankets, home renovation shows, and spending time with friends and family.
