Tenspeed Hero Intern: Ria Roberts

The Tenspeed Hero Internship Program has another member we would like to introduce. Meet Ria Roberts. Her first post was on Chicago’s Lake Front Path. Please look for upcoming spring classic coverage from Ria as she ponders the highs and lows of culture, books, art and acts of teenage rebellion in Flanders. In her spare time Ria is an artist and designer, pondering her twenties during the teens of the twenty-first century.

Below we give Ria eight questions to test her left and right brain activity. It is Google-esque in a Hero-esque kind of way.
