Chrissy Ryan

Preschool Teacher

 

I grew up in Colchester Vermont, where I reside today with my husband Craig, my daughters Molly and Maggie, and my dog Max. I am a graduate of Springfield College located in Springfield, MA and I hold a BS in Business Management. My employment history includes banking, finance and education. I worked as a Credit Analyst until I decided to stay home with my girls, who both attended The Balancing Act Preschool. During that time, I began working at the preschool and gym in 2005 and today, I currently assist Anna Meehan.
In my free time, I enjoy back yard BBQ's, walking, camping, traveling, watching my kiddo's play sports and socializing with my friends and family.
