A Rebel with a Cause.
A creative visionary with a passion for good.
Ryan's obsession for building started early, swinging a hammer almost before he could even walk. Throughout college, he honed his skills by renovating and fixing homes around Los Angeles to make ends meet. After graduation, he spent the next two decades working on a wide range of productions, from national commercials to home renovation shows, contributing as an assistant, producer, and on-screen talent. When he's not immersed in construction or the entertainment industry, Ryan dedicates his time to running a charity dedicated to improving the mental health of veterans and first responders across the country and lends his expertise to modifying homes for injured veterans, making them more accessible and better suited to their needs. Guided by the motto "Make Shit Happen," Ryan is no stranger to challenging the status quo and finding creative ways to get things done.
