STUDENT LEADERSHIP TEAM
Ryan Handoko
- Brown 2013 – Applied Math – Biology
- Hometown: Claremont, California
- Goals: God-willing, to pursue an MD/PhD and do some research in mathematical modeling of medicine/medical things. Also, to learn how to be an awesome discipler.
- Cool things about Ryan: Surprise! I’m not Japanese. I’m ethnically Chinese (mostly), culturally Indonesian (hence the last name), and born American. Just in my freshman year, CHC has challenged me to think about my faith in so many new perspectives and to genuinely make God the center of my life, which makes me appreciate the irony of how Brown made me stronger in my fatih. Also, you probably don’t look food like I do.
- Not-so-cool things about Ryan: You probably don’t love food like I do.

Derek Vance

- Hometown: Poca, West Virginia
- Loves: Nostalgic music, political debate, food in the Ryan Handokoian manner, people, the little things
- Cool things about Derek: This summer, my band played the prison/ waterpark circuit. Our mascot was a stuffed duck.
- Not-so-cool things about Derek: I broke a hotel light fixture with the duck. Management was not pleased.

- Brown 2012 – English
- Hometown: Ridgefield, CT
- Goals: Graduate with a double concentration in English and something else, go to graduate school for teaching or attend law school, get a job, pay off debt, have a family, etc.
- Fun facts: I transferred from the University of Connecticut mid-way through sophomore year. I am very musical (flute, piano, some violin/guitar). I enjoy reading Tolkien and C. S. Lewis, participating in organizations that discuss and question religion, and looking for job/internship opportunities.
- CHC stuff: Currently a Lifegroup facilitator as well as Shepherd Team member. CHC is wonderful because of these people’s obvious passion for God and determination to proactively follow in Jesus’ footsteps.
