In my own words

— Ryan

I have strong interpersonal skills, with extensive experience in managing project teams to close business deals.

My ability to work with a cross-functional team was enhanced greatly during the last 5 years as a real estate broker. This work with cross-functional teams allowed me to hone my skills in developing stakeholders, setting deliverable deadlines and ensuring those deadlines were met. I have also worked in the association management industry that allowed me to develop my skills as a presenter and public speaker. In that same position, I was constantly working with the association?s volunteers on developing new educational content for the community. My real estate degree and economics minor provided me with a knowledge of financial reporting and financial management. I am originally from a small town in Wisconsin, where my parents fostered my love for the outdoors. With this experience, I would like to transition into a sales or finance based position in the outdoor industry.
