It was the banjo heard from around the world! Ryan Peterson strummed his way [1] into Becca Kufrin's life [2] on The Bachelor [3]'s After the Final Rose weeks ago, and he'll have his chance to win her over on The Bachelorette [4]. While we can only hope that he breaks out more tunes throughout the season, here's what else we know about the fella.
- He's originally from the Boston area. However, now he works in Manhattan Beach, CA.
- He went to the Wentworth Institute of Technology. Ryan graduated with a BS in business management from the Boston-based school.
- He's currently a landscape designer and contractor. But before that, he was an implementation assistant at Circle Surrogacy, a surrogacy and egg donation agency, according to his LinkedIn profile [5].
- He plays the banjo. That's how he introduced himself to Bachelor Nation, after all. A picture [6] shows that he also plays the guitar.
- He's no stranger to boating. Although his Instagram [7] is private, his profile picture is of a sailboat, so we guess he really does want to "sail away" with Becca like he said in his song!
