Ryder is a sophomore from Northern California (not to be confused with the equally great Central Valley or Southern California!), planning to study Biomedical Engineering. Outside of class, Ryder loves to cook with YPop-Up, dabble with the Yale Scientific, volunteer as an EMT, and of course keeps telling himself he’ll get involved with research at Yale. If not tucked away in Bass, you’ll often find him running/getting lost in New Haven, strumming his ukulele, diving into a random biography, or in the Stiles gym. Ryder is always thrilled to make a new friend on campus, so don’t hesitate to stop by the office, nerd out over a good recipe, or just say hi!
