Ryan R. Katz,
Ed.D

Six is the name Ryan uses when he makes things without knowing exactly what they're going to become. Ryan is the person who has to live with whatever happens.

The fry cooking is part of that. So is the stand-up. So is the podcast. So is this website.

He's interested in what happens when he stops trying so hard to be a particular kind of person and starts paying attention to what's actually happening.

Sometimes that means following an idea. Sometimes it means surfing a wave. Sometimes it means working a long shift with people he likes and remembering that a life doesn't have to make sense to anyone else to be good.

He's building something that matters to him. He doesn't know exactly what it will become. But he's curious. And he's paying attention.
