All About Ryleigh (Hello <3)
Educational Background
Elementary School
School(s)
Joyceville Public School (JK-Grade 1)
Favourite Subject(s)
Unkown. I don't remember much about my academics at Joyceville.
Award(s)
Academic Achievement Award, Grade 1. I received this award after completing the 2nd grade curriculum in all my classes when the 1st grade curriculum wasn't challenging enough.
Years after this recognition (Grade 7-Present) I have now been recognized as a "burnout gifted kid" (a kid who was heavily recognized for their academic achievement but lost all motivation to do anything in Middle/High School).
Holy Name Catholic School (Grade 2-6)
Favourite Subject(s)
Literacy. It combined my 2 favourite past-times, creative writing and reading. Most of the activities done in class gave us choice (whether it was in what we read for a book talk or what we wrote a short story about) which is very important to me.
Award(s)
Gold Eco School Certification. This award wasn't awarded to me specifically but I led the tour of the school, the eco demonstrations, and the interview with the person from Eco Schools Ontario that ultimately won the certification for our school.
Calvin Park Public School // LEAP(Grade 7-8)
Favourite Subject(s)
Music and Drama. During music classes, I finally got to learn to play an actual instrument (violin) rather than music theory every class like Holy Name. In Drama, I was actually learning and getting a chance to act on stage rather than only doing tableau which is what happened at Holy Name.
Award(s)
Gourgon-Petersen Tech Award, Grade 8 Graduation. Awarded for my dedication and leadership within the Calvin Park Tech Crew.
High School
School(s)
Loyalist Colleigate and Vocational Institute (Grade 9-Present)
Favourite Subject(s)
Drama. In High School Drama we have the oppurtunity to do more advanced course content such as plaster masks and voice acting, something that very few people get to do in elementary school.
Award(s)
Honour Standing, Grade 9. The average grade for all my classes was above 80%.
Subject Excellencies, Grade 9. Final grades were over 90% in Science, Drama, Math, and French.

Who Am I Quizzes
Learning Styles
I am a Kinesthetic Learner which means I learn by touching and doing
Some jobs that would benefit my learning style are anything in the arts (because you're constantly making and creating) and computers (because there's a lot of trial and error, especially with coding)
I agree with this result because I like to fidget a lot so it would make sense that I learn better when I'm actually doing the actions
This will not affect any of the decisions I have already made because I've selected a career that allows me to satisfy my kinesthetic learning style
Personality
My personality type is ISFP: The Composer
This means I prefer to work independently and I like to have a lot of flexibility and variety in schedules and tasks
I agree with this result because I like to be able to do things my way without having to worry about other people and what they want
This will not affect any of the decisions I have already made because I've selected a career that allows me to be flexible in my working schedule, provides variety in work tasks, and allows me to be semi-independent but not lose my social skills
Interests
My interest type is the Arranger (Artistic and Conventional)
My artistic interest trait tells me that I like activities that don't force me to follow a strict set of rules
My conventional interest trait tells me that I like activities that require analysis and problem-solving
I agree with this result because one of my favourite past-times is solving online ARGs (Alternate Reality Games) which involve codes, hidden websites, audio/visual editing, and a many more things that involve analyzing and problem solving. I also like to do various forms of art/performing arts
This will not affect any of the decisions I have already made because my chosen career allows me to be creative but it also involves a lot of statistics and analyzing those statistics in order to figure out how to grow
Knowledge
My top 3 subject areas are computers, creative arts, and languages
I agree with this result because I do most of my schoolwork and hobbies on computers, I was accepted to 2 arts programs, and I am almost fluent in German and French
This will not affect any of the decisions I have already made because my chosen career is very heavily involved with computers, as well as "performance"
Motivations
My primary and secondary motivations are independence and achievement
This means I want a job where I can do things autonomously but I also want a job where I can see my achievements through hard work
I agree with this result because I want to work a 'gig' job and freelance in a few years
This will not affect any of the decisions I have already made because my chosen career is almost entirely independent and every second you are working you are improving and achieving
5 Words That Describe Me
Loyal
I always take my friends' side and I'm always there when I'm needed
This will help me in my future because loyalty helps keep me motivated in the workplace
Hardworking
I always put in my best effort, sometimes to the point that I'm perfectionistic so this trait isn't usually an asset
I will work hard to get into college and to gain a following on Twitch. I won't have to "buy" my followers, rather I would work hard to develop my personality and be engaging to my audience
Kind
I always put other people's needs and feelings before my own even if I don't want to because the person was extremely toxic to me and/or my friends
Kindness will help me develop good relationships with my classmates and coworkers which is important because it opens up more oppurtunities in the workplace
Soft
As much as I try to be, I am not very edgy and I like a lot of things that are considered to be cute/soft such as the color yellow, flowers, butterflies, and the cottagecore aesthetic
Having a softer vibe can make me more approachable in customer service positions
Technologically Advanced
I am extremely skilled with computers and technology. I know how to build a computer from scratch and I can code in HTML, Python, CSS, and Javascript
Being extremly skilled with computers can help me get into the field I want as well as many other jobs because we are in a very technology-focused age
Strengths and Weaknesses
Strength
I make extensive plans for any goal or activity that takes place over the long-term (3 months or more)
This a strength because it makes me a good problem-solver and analyzer which are skills a lot of employer's work for if you're working in a heavily computer-based field
Weakness
I overanalyze everything, usually only looking at the negatives
I will try to make this a strength by first looking at how the positives affect the negatives and then turning them into a bigger picture and using all the details to solve the problem
My Transferrable Skill
Using various media to present ideas imaginatively
This skill will help me in the future because I plan on going into social media influence and entertainment where you need to present content imaginatively in order to keep your audience as well as needing to use all forms of social media to engage with potential new followers
After High School
After high school, I plan on taking a gap year to travel and work before going to college in Thunder Bay
I plan on flying down to Colorado to meet my online best friend of 5 years for the first time since she finishes University the same year I finish high school
We planned on being down there for a month or so before we both fly back into Kingston for a month before Bella goes home
During this time I will also be working to save up some extra money for college
After my gap year, I will apply to the Digital Media Production program at Confederation College of Media Arts in Thunder Bay in order to learn more about being a content creator
During my time in the program, assuming I get in, I will work on my twitch streams and growing my brand (Twitch Streaming and social media entertainment is my career choice)
Afterward, I'm going to look for an editing job for YouTube in order to have some sort of stable income on top of my streams
This is the best pathway for me because I hate feeling super boxed-in with a traditional job/employer and being able to work with something that interests me (digital media and computers) will help keep me motivated to work.
