:: ::

In this podcast, I interview artist Ryan Kim who recently graduated from the New York School of Visual Arts. As a previous student of mine at an international school in Korea, he lets passion drive his career and we discuss the common problems many high school students face, how to balance between finding your own passion and listening to advice from your seniors, how to be motivated to work hard, and to enjoy the ride towards a coming of age.
