History
Ryan began improv classes at The Hideout Theatre in May 2011. He was completely unaware of long form narrative improv before seeing his first show at the Hideout and fell in love instantly. He graduated with a BFA in screenwriting and that love of story has kept him fully engaged in improv storytelling. He has been a member of both Local Genius Society and Past Lives. Currently he performs with The Starborn.
He began directing improv in August of 2012 when Ruby Willmann handed down the host/director role of The Fancy-Pants Mashup to him. He has since become a director for Maestro and Co Directed the 2014 TheatreSports (mainstage run) at the Hideout with Lacy Shawn.
He is known for often dressing up.
