Laura Kriegel

Laura is a kid advocate. She has dedicated her life to creating spaces for kids to build, create and reimagine the world together. In 2013 Laura packed up her bags and hit the road with Jack Schott. What they thought would be a month long road trip turned into 3 years of living on the road researching summer camps and learning spaces. They made incredible friends, learned more than they could imagine, and found a talent for speaking and sharing ideas. After years on the road, Jack and Laura founded and now run Stomping Ground, a sleep away summer camp dedicated to inspiring the next generation of Radically empathetic decision makers. Laura has a Bachelors in Fine Art from SUNY purchase and a Masters in Social Work from Columbia University.
