My name is Ryan Manson and I am from Tewksbury, Massachusetts. I am currently 18 years old and a freshman at the University of New England. I am currently studying for a Pre-pharmacy major. I decided to come to the University of New England after graduating from Tewksbury Memorial High School as part of the Class of 2018 because of the beautiful views and the astounding academic standing that the school holds. I absolutely love it here and I could not see myself going to any other school.

At home, I live with my mom, Laura, and my stepdad, Eric, as well as my two younger brothers, Shawn and Robert, and my two younger sisters, Juliana and Mia. I ran track in High School and I love to play basketball in my free time. I spend most of my time playing basketball, playing video games, or spending time with my friends, family, and my girlfriend Sarah who also goes to UNE. I also love shoes/sneakers (below are some of my favorites). I like to travel and I spend most of my summers in Ogunquit, Maine, and also a week in Martha’s Vineyard. I also took a trip to the Bahamas over the past summer, and I hope to visit more of the world in the future.
