Hello! I'm Ryan. I'm a third culture kid - I've lived in Shanghai for 4 years, Bangkok for 7 years, lived in Singapore for 4 years (during which 8 served in the Army for 2), and I now live in Evanston, Illinois.

I'm studying Product Design at Northwestern University.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

Stories! From living through a military coup in Thailand, to leading an expedition to 5000m above sea level in Ladakh, to staying awake for 100 hours straight to dig an anti-artillery trench, I've learned to love telling-and listening-to stories.
