I’m Ryan.

I’m a business student who spends a lot of my time building things.

My interests sit at the intersection of entrepreneurship, technology, finance, culture, and international business. I enjoy taking ideas from something written in my notes to something people can actually see, use, and react to.

Outside of building, I’m studying Mandarin and have a growing interest in the relationship between business, technology, and culture between the United States and China.

Let’s build something interesting.
