Ryan (she/they) is so excited to return for her second summer with Shakespeare Ensemble! She is a junior at Smith College where she studies Film and Archival Studies, works as a residential advisor, and directs/organizes student-led theater. Their obsession with Shakespeare started in high school when she directed Much Ado About Nothing with her friends and now she can’t stop thinking about these funny little plays. They also enjoy spending time outside, having visited many National Parks during her teenage years. Some other special interests include ghosts, tabletop roleplaying games, and obscure facts about prominent nobility of history.
