Ryan has been booking shows in Fargo-Moorhead for years. He was one of a group of promoters who ran a now-defunct all-ages music venue called The New Direction. Ryan joined The Aquarium staff to continue bringing high-quality artists to the area.

In addition to booking shows, Ryan is the vocalist in Baltic to Boardwalk.
