<p>My name is Kaleb Ryan. I grew up in a small family, in a small city called Heath in Ohio where I attended Heath High School. During my time there I was active with many clubs. I was a member of the Spanish club, and ended up becoming treasurer, I was the President of the Student Library Advisory Board, I was one of two field commander of the marching band, and I was a member of the National Honor Society. I was also an active member of the drama department.</p>
<p>Near the end of my high school experience I volunteered in the library where I learned a lot about organization and working with people. I graduated with honors from Heath High School. I was also part of the Lickig County 4-H band outside of a band outside school. This band was more dedicated to serving the community. I am still a part of it, this being my seventh year, and have been a member of the council, that is responsible for planning activities that the band does, for four years and a part of the Advisory Board, that leads and advises the council, for two years. This is my third year being the clarinet section leader. Last year I was the Vice President but decided not to take on an office this year because I would not be there as often because of school. During the past summer I worked at a Tim Hortons in Columbus where I learned a lot about dealing with people and managing my time when I was promoted to supervisor after only one month.</p>
<p>I now attend Antioch College in Yellow Springs, Ohio where I am currently majoring in Environmental Science. The past two quarters I have been on the Dean’s List at Antioch. I speak English and am currently studying Spanish at Antioch. For my current co-op I am back at home, working in Columbus at Franklin Soil and Water Conservation District as and Administrative and Program Intern. It is currently my third week there but so far I am enjoying and learning a lot about ways to protect our streams from our own backyard. So far I am enjoying my time and I’m excited for what the next few months have to offer.</p>
