Overview
About Me
My legal name is "Rocket" (no last name)! If we can choose our shoes and our friends, why not our names?
My childhood name is Ryan Kim, which I still use as a stage name for a project called America's Best Friend, celebrating everyday life in the USA (facebook.com/americasbf).
I'm a creative guy - I feed myself as photographer/videographer.
I love meeting new people and traveling.
