Building local websites since his high school days, Ryan was drawn to the concept of SEO during the dot-com bubble. "As a kid trying to game search engines, I was so fascinated that Yahoo results seemed so much better than competitors like Lycos or Alta Vista. Once I found out Google was the reason for this, my true appreciation of their work and Backrub/PageRank theory really began." Joining Ayima as an SEO consultant in 2011, Ryan had stints at several other global agencies before returning to Ayima as VP of Operations in 2015.
