Rickayla Berry

Hi, my name is Rickayla Berry. I was born in Toledo, Ohio and I am 23 years old. I am currently a sophomore majoring in communications at the University of Toledo. I am also a Jessup W. Scott high school graduate where I participated in TPS’s career tech program in broadcasting and communications.

I am currently a member of the U.S Army National guard where I’ve been in service for 5 years. In those 5 years I earned 2 medals. I earned two leadership roles(in basic training) and also became lead motivator in (Advanced individual training), where I am now currently working on taking more leadership roles here in Toledo at the 323rd MP company. Outside of school and military, I like participating in the performing arts, such as dance, rap, singing and djing. My junior year of high school I won first place dancing to a mix put together by me and some friends.

Outside of those things I like to hang out with my family, go to the gym, swim, hang out with friends and I also love working with kids. Currently, I am working as a substitute teacher for Toledo Public Schools where I love working with students. In the future, I aspire to be an audiologist with a bachelors in communications and a masters in audiology.

As a host for BCAN’s Trading Up, Rickayla gets to dive into her natural curiosity and not only learn about the skilled trades, but also educate young learners about opportunities in these fields.

Haylie Robinson

Haylie Robinson

Haylie Robinson, aka Hayliestory, is most known for her love of travel and passion for storytelling.

As a Northwest Ohio native, Haylie has always had a love for travel since her youth. While exploring the countryside every summer with her grandparents, she learned early on that travel is less about the distance from home and more about the experiences collected long her journey.

After serving her hometown as a festival queen in her teens the importance of community became clear. It is now Haylie’s mission to showcase stories throughout the region and beyond. For the last decade Haylie has brought her online audience alongside her adventures and shared her love for tradition, culture, and celebration.

In 2022 Haylie was voted favorite media personality in The Blade’s Readers’ choice and by 2023 her first independent production, Finding Festivals, debuted on Toledo PBS affiliate WGTE. The 13-episodic travel genre series explores various annual events throughout the Midwest from harvest to music festivals and everything in-between.

Outside of BCAN Haylie mentors a youth through SMYL, sings at her local church, and can be found curled up with a good fantasy book with her Cavalier King Charles puppy on her lap. She is passionate about creating pathways for the next generation to be successful in their endeavors.
