Ryan is currently in extended adult foster care and is attending college at the University of Texas at Arlington (UTA). He is motivated and focused on his future, with a strong desire to become a teacher. Ryan is dedicated to his studies and works hard to achieve his goals, demonstrating responsibility and perseverance. He is thoughtful, kind, and shows a genuine interest in helping others. He has qualities that will serve him well in his future career as an educator. Outside of school, Ryan enjoys camping, fishing, and playing sports, especially football and basketball. He values staying active, spending time outdoors, and building positive relationships with those around him.

For Ryan’s birthday, he is wishing for a nice dress watch. He would love something he can wear to special events and that helps him feel confident and put-together. Having a personal item like this would support him during his foster care journey by giving him something he can take pride in, helping him feel more secure and confident when meeting new people, and reminding him that he is valued and celebrated. This watch would be a meaningful gift he can carry with him through important moments. This is his one birthday wish.
