Welcome! My name is Ryan. I’m passionate about engineering, my leadership with The National Hispanic Institute, pre-medical pursuits, service, music, and theater. I’ve also added some fun bits. Thanks for visiting!
From academic research publications to a related social media channel with millions of views, I have endeavored to share my love of this field with others.

Pre-Medical Preparation
I was honored to be elected as American Lorenzo de Zavala Youth Legislative Session (AMLDZ) Vice President, win the 2021 Great Debate Tournament, and participate in other NHI initiatives.
I have worked diligently to earn multiple pre-medical certifications from numerous accredited institutions. These certifications cover a broad array of medical topics.
Service
I have been fortunate to engage in multiple service activities including Stand with Camden and my school’s Peer Leaders organization, among many others.
I am humbled to have received multiple accolades, including a Joint Legislative Resolution from the State of New Jersey for my accomplishments.
Scholastic Honors
I am a marching band leader, sing for acapella and choral groups, and help lead a rock band. I am also a cast member and set-builder for my school’s Drama Club and participate in Shakespeare competitions.
Music & Theater
If you’re wondering about my rock band, Rubik’s Cube mosaics, or just want to see some fun pics with my friends — you’ve come to the right section!
