Faolan Penland O’Brien

Instructor, Summer Camp

Faolan joined the Calleva team in the summer of 2025. She is an avid backpacker, rock climber, snowboarder, and SUPer! She has worked as a climbing instructor and snowboard coach in the past and was the vice president of both climbing clubs in high school. She enjoys taking friends out on new adventures to Shenandoah, Movement, or the Potomac. Her favorite aspect of Calleva is being able to spend every day outside and share her love for it with campers. A fun fact about her is that as a baby, her favorite game was to balance as many wooden blocks on her head as possible!
