Cambrey is a native Detroiter, an emerging voice in writing—with some features in national publications, and one of the best people to turn to for awesome vegetarian recipe and restaurant recommendations. She’s a recent grad of Columbia University who demonstrates a natural gift in her work with our students—probably because of all the amazing experience she has working with youth outside of 826michigan’s writing and tutoring labs.
In her service as a robotier in the store, Cambrey makes Mondays one of our favorite days of the week, ensuring that the Detroit Robot Factory is open for the surrounding community to discover the magic that takes place inside. She’s also one of the first faces to greet our Detroit After-school Tutoring students at the beginning of the week, making it possible for their after-school experience to start off right.
Also fascinating and fun is Cambrey’s extensive knowledge of tea. She can always be found enjoying a delicious cup of hot tea during her store shift and at tutoring. Her enthusiasm has rubbed off on us a bit and encouraged staff to be more hydrated.
PS: You should definitely check out her writing. Much of it can be found here on her personal website: https://www.cambrey.com/.
