Freedom Day Team

Ryan Headshot Website 2.jpg

Ryan began his investment career at Smith Barney in 1996. He earned the role of Senior Portfolio Manager where he worked until it became Citigroup, the largest bank/brokerage firm in the world. He lovingly and gratefully owes his start and only role in ten years, to an amazing firm at the time.

​

But he escaped Wall Street in 2006, for one simple reason. He kept a sacred oath to anybody who trusted him to always serve their families exactly as he did his own. To communicate and invest without barriers or conflicts of interest, he and his partner launched an independent money management firm where those families are still served today.
