Hailing from Randolph, New Jersey, Ryan Choi just began his freshman year as a Gallatin student at NYU. A man who knows his way around Facebook’s privacy settings; all that one finds under his About tab is an unsourced quote describing his hard-nosed, no-nonsense approach to work:

 

He keeps his online identity to a minimum by pledging his allegiance to only five Facebook groups, including his high school’s orchestra and FBLA (Future Business Leaders of America) chapter.

In addition, he appears to have been a staunch supporter of Austin Joseph in the 2012 elections for Junior Class President at Randolph High School:

Since moving into university housing on August 24th, Ryan appears to be integrating himself well. He’s added about a dozen new friends on Facebook, all who attend NYU, in the last two days. Not that he isn’t popular already; he has almost 400 friends on Facebook. He’s also a part of the NYU Play: the Games club which recently took over UHall’s lounge area with a swarth of gamers for a meetup:

 

Coincidentally, Ryan shares his name with fellow gamer and renowned League of Legends player, Ryan Choi. This bestows upon him one of the coolest logos ever made for a name:

 

Ryan’s computer prowess and congenial nature will no doubt serve well any group he works with over the course of the semester. I look forward to getting to know Ryan more well when he comments on this post and as we progress in the seminar.
