Teaching, Volunteering, and Fundraising
Stagecrafters Youth Theater
Instructor
Through Stagecrafters I have had the wonderful expereince of working on Orange High School productions, Brady Middle Productions, and teaching youth theater classes. From All Shook Up to Acting for 7-10 year olds, I have gotten to know the community and kids here.
Dancing For The Kids
Choreography
I was lucky enough to be a part of the Akrons Children's Hospital annual dancing for the kids fundraiser two years in a row. In 2020 and in 2021 I got to work with a "celebrity" from the community to teach them a fun dance to help raise money for the hospital. My team even won the competition my first year!
Choreography Club
Co-founder and Vice President
Ryan's Freshmen year of college in 2018 he and his friend, Tara Wade, decided they wanted a creative space free from grades, judgment, and performance, where choreographers could come to try out their works and dancers could get a little exercise and practice in. A couple months later choreography club was founded! We had over 60 members and actually outgrew the space we started in and moved into a dance studio. There are videos from every class but if you would like to see a couple of my personal favorites head over to the teacher gallery.
