Ryan grew up in southeast Colorado, USA and graduated from Colorado State University. He is a mechanical engineer by trade, an entrepreneur by design, and an author by his own accord.
He likes to travel as frequently as possible and has visited some of the best parts of North America, only so far. He may or may not enjoy crocheting and whittling small canoes.
A self-proclaimed 'freak' for self-improvement material, he spends much of his time reading, listening and writing about being the best human being he can be. He is the author of "Project: Groovy - Life Lessons from 34 of My Closest Friends On Happiness, Fulfillment, and Aspiring to be Awesome" released in September, 2015.
He occupies his time with small business ventures and writes [almost] exclusively at the site he founded: www.projectgroovy.com.
