Nur Shelton

Hometown: Ashland, OR

Three things I love to do: Sing with the Stanford Mendicants, boulder at the climbing gym, and explore the foothills and the Santa Cruz Mountains!

I could talk all day about... History, 80s music, dancing, hiking, poetry, gardening, tennis, Star Wars, tea, The Lord of the Rings, and why cake is the ultimate food

I would love to connect with folks who work in fields related to or share an interest in... Creative Writing, Journalism/Travel Journalism, Sustainability, Environmental Science, Education

More about Nur: Nur is one of six Shelton kids hailing from the small mountain town of Ashland, Oregon. He grew up hiking, climbing, and swimming in the incredible natural landscapes of the Pacific Northwest, and he feels so lucky to be able to spend another summer in the Sierras - it feels like home! This will be Nur's second summer at Fallen Leaf Lake, and he's super stoked to be returning as a tennis instructor. Back at Stanford, you might be able to find him in a tree at the Dish, playing with the Club Tennis team, or serenading some passersby with the Mendicants. Come find him on the courts to chat about almond croissants, the best adventures in the area, or why Federer is the G.O.A.T. Nur is so excited to meet the guests this year and share in the Camp magic!
