Ryan is originally from a small farming community in Northwest Missouri.

He’s been in sales for over 20 years and it’s definitely his career passion; first banking and now real estate. I’m not surprised he’s so successful. He’s got a style that works; friendly, helpful, and sincere.

Ryan lives on the North Shore of Chicago with his husband, Brian, who owns an upscale boutique eye lash salon in Highland Park.

Currently with Berkshire Hathaway, he’s going to share tips on the industry that will be particularly beneficial if you are considering a brick and mortar store for your business.
