What else?
I’ve produced podcasts for “the fastest growing VC you’ve never heard of.”
I have an M.A. in Journalism from NYU, where I learned from writers and editors at The New Yorker, New York Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, and Slate, as well as a National Book Critics Circle Award finalist and the city itself. While in school, I was a fact-checker at Vogue. 17-year-old Ryan didn’t see that coming.
I've DJ'd fashion shows, architecture symposiums, clubs, weddings, and impromptu Atlanta block parties.
I made a surf record. Another record—Southern's 11 Years—was featured on Bandcamp's homepage. I wrote that with three friends.
I, uh, ‘dance’ in this video for Kelly Clarkson’s “Tie it Up.”
I’m a long-suffering fan of the Florida State Seminoles, the Atlanta Braves, and common decency.
I was raised on Florida beaches. I've adulted in Nashville, Atlanta, Malibu, New York City, and greater Boston. And I’m curious if either of us needs a jacket. Likely, but it never hurts to ask.
