And despite being in a somewhat ageist industry, Ryan isn’t afraid of getting older.

“I love my age. I love my life right now,” the Ithaca star continued. “I love what I know about. I love the person I’ve become, the one I’ve evolved into. In my life I’ve been scrappy as hell, but I feel easy with things now. I think that comes with age.”
