ryan tham
content strategist & storyteller
also a video editor
hey, i'm ryan, also known as ryeones. i tell stories about my twenties. most recently the content strategist at seeksophie, helping a travel start-up tell stories to the people who matter.
outside work, i love teaching myself new skills, indulging in creative projects, playing sport competitively, and documenting my life for the people a few steps behind me. right now that means building my personal brand alongside soffcopy™ and fomties™, two projects i wish my younger self had found sooner.
before all this: architecture at NUS, a custom sneaker business, and five years on the national floorball team.
