A graduate of New York University School of Law, the self-described "transit enthusiast" has created a replica of the New York City Subway map showing only stations which are wheelchair-accessible. This has been lauded for highlighting the relative paucity of such stations.
Ahn has also gained recognition as a YouTube musician for his groundbreaking mashup of the opening number from the hit musical Hamilton with the theme song to the movie Space Jam.
In 2015, Ahn published a widely read comprehensive ranking of every Cleveland Browns loss since 1999. He appeared as a contestant on Jeopardy! in 2013.
