Favorite thing about working at Ryan: The feeling of closeness among the

Goals for the year: To infuse technology into the art curriculum; To
collaborate with the classroom teachers so that the art curriculum is well
integrated with what students are studying in their classrooms; Most
important--to make learning about art at Ryan fun and exciting for all students!

and camping; and work on my own artwork. Also, I am working on improving my
master of Spanish!
