WHY
RYAN?

A useful media voice

Lived experience, without losing the system.

Ryan talks like a person, not a press release. He can explain what happened without sanding off the absurdity, frustration, or stakes.

He connects the specific incident to the system around it—the policy, incentives, culture, and people left doing extra work.

He brings public-affairs discipline to live interviews, but he is not afraid to say when a supposedly accessible process simply does not work.
