Ideas are bulletproof

Howdy! I am Ryan.

I am a computer engineering student at Purdue University. At Purdue, I balance coursework with teaching (both formally and informally), serving on the IEEE executive board, and working on projects that help people.

When I’m offline, you can find me playing chess, training Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, or playing guitar.
