Introduce Yourself/Tell About Yourself: My name is Ryan and I’m 17 years old from Los Angeles. I love to create content every single day. It’s the one thing that brings me overwhelming joy. I am very extroverted and that helps me with posting videos and seeing how I can relate to my followers.

What Inspires You Every day? : the fact anyone if they put their mind to it can accomplish anything they want to.

What is some words of wisdom you live by?: Everything happens for a reason. I truly believe that this is true. We are out in this earth to accomplish something and each decision we make is to better ourselves even if we can’t correctly see that at first.

What is your ultimate goal in life? : My ultimate goal in life is either to become an actress or an influencer. I have been working very hard over the past year to gain 11k followers on my tiktok. I love being in front of the camera and acting makes me feel like I’m in my own element like I can be anyone I choose to. I love to connect with others so anyway I can do that I am content.

How have you been during the pandemic and how has it affected you? : During the pandemic it was very hard for me. Like I mentioned in very extroverted so not being able to see my friends for the longest time took a huge toll on my mental health. I became very depressed and even stopped eating. It was very hard and you do not understand how much you need socializing until it’s gone.

What is a message you would like to give others? : To never give up on dream you have. So many people including some of my family told me that my dream of connecting with others and building a following was dumb and it would never happen but I pushed through and already accomplished so so much.

What else would you like to tell others about you or your life?: I deal with lots of anxiety so putting myself out there on the internet actually helps me.
