After earning Computer and Electrical Engineering BS degrees from North Carolina State University, he worked as an Electrical RF Engineer on RADAR components that were produced and used in a UAV. At heart, he is a software guy, and knowing this he worked his way through defense industry software roles to eventually land in the motor city doing automotive-related web software work. He is ecstatic to leave behind Michigan winters and continue writing software at LiveAction. Ryan likes to spend his free time learning, hiking, running, cycling, longboard skateboarding, building IoT devices, and of course, coding.
