- Rilwan was a member of his high school swimming team!
- Rilwan’s eyesight without contacts or glasses is not great, by his own admission. So, in other words, if he’s not wearing contacts or glasses, it might not be the best time to get his opinion on if you’re having a good hair day.
- Rilwan’s favorite quote is from William Shakespeare: “Love all, trust a few, do wrong to none.”
