Background

For nearly seven years, Ryan has been a professional designer. Starting with traditional print media, he attended the University of Missouri, Columbia. In the University Design program he was given a traditional design background: theory, principals and practice. After graduation he quickly realized that print media was a slowly decaying form. Digital media and the internet was where the future of design was headed.

Ryan began buying books, reading blogs and studying web design. He has spent countless hours researching topics such as Search Engine Optimization, digital branding, email marketing and the user experience. He has emersed himself in online marketing, studying traditional techniques and how they are applied online. He is always reading, always learning, always pushing his knowledge to the limit to deliver optimized, user-friendly websites.
