Ryan’s primary objective is to help clients evaluate their investment and retirement planning needs by exploring “what-if” scenarios based on their individual financial goals and circumstances. He believes in building strong, trusting relationships by listening to his clients, understanding their comfort levels, and developing strategies designed to help them work toward their long-term financial objectives.

Ryan focuses on 403(b) retirement plans, investment planning, and personal financial strategies. He works with Pennsylvania State Education Association (PSEA) members and their families as they plan for retirement and helps clients better understand their Public School Employees’ Retirement System (PSERS) benefits and how those benefits may fit into their overall retirement strategy.

A graduate of Penn State University with a degree in Economics, Ryan is a Registered Representative and Investment Adviser Representative of GWN Securities, Inc., an independent registered broker-dealer. He also holds life, accident, and health insurance licenses. His education, training, and experience allow him to evaluate each client’s individual circumstances and help identify financial products and strategies appropriate for their needs, objectives, and risk tolerance.

Ryan grew up in Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania, and now resides in Altoona with Penny, his Golden Retriever/Labrador/Australian Shepherd mix. He has served on the board of a nonprofit organization dedicated to improving access to healthcare for an underserved community. Outside of work, Ryan enjoys working out, golfing, traveling, attending Penn State and Pittsburgh sporting events, and occasionally cooking for family and friends.
