Growing up in Philadelphia Ryan played hockey and lacrosse, taking lacrosse with him to Kings College he learned all he could about video production. Rolling through an intense interview process right out of college, with little to no funds, Ryan landed himself in the room with Pat McAfee and moved to Indy to produce the Pat McAfee show.
