ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Hi, I’m Ryan! I was born in Germany to humble and loving parents from the Midwestern United States. My dad was an Air Force Lt. Colonel, which provided him and my mom a lot of travel and a variety of cultural experiences, which they shared with me. I grew up loving sports and excelling in academics as a scholar athlete who graduated High School with Honors. In school, I gravitated toward the arts such as drama and English versus math and science. Although I hold a Masters Degree in Business Administration, a Bachelors Degree in University Studies, and a Minor in Business Management, I pride myself most on being human and being able to relate to people from a wide variety of lifestyle backgrounds and demographics. In many ways, I place more value in my life experiences than in my formal education. My kids Luke (16) and Gunnar (7) are my pride and joys and we call Las Vegas, Nevada our home.
