After completing his Bachelor of Architecture at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo in 2023, Ryan joined the AGD team to further hone his skills. Having participated in the LA Metro program in 2022, Ryan gained valuable experience working on a variety of projects ranging from single housing units to mixed-use developments. His design philosophy revolves around creating responsive architecture that pays meticulous attention to detail. In recognition of his talent and hard work, Ryan's thesis received an Honorable Mention from the faculty in 2023. Additionally, he has been selected to be featured in the prestigious METROPOLIS Future100, a publication that showcases the top graduating architecture and interior design students in the United States and Canada.
