Ryan has built and led organizations responsible for hundreds of millions of dollars in cumulative revenue, developing teams across the US and internationally. In 2012, he founded Against The Grain, a sales and marketing firm that was successfully acquired in 2025.
Today, Ryan works with businesses and entrepreneurs to build scalable growth strategies, strengthen sales systems, and create leverage through marketing and business development : with expertise spanning direct response marketing, lead generation, brand development, and strategic partnerships.
A champion on and off the field, Ryan earned a Pickleball World Championship title and lost over 100 pounds through a disciplined lifestyle transformation : living proof that the same principles driving business success apply to every area of life. Based in East Texas, Ryan's mission is to help individuals and organizations unlock their potential and build businesses and lives they are proud of.

As VP of Marketing, he scaled the company from startup to a mid sized firm, delivering a 30x return on paid media spend and growing inbound leads by 187% year-over-year. He has launched product lines, managed national trade shows, and built the full marketing infrastructure for a manufacturer competing against a dominant industry leader.
He works with service businesses to build marketing systems that generate consistent, qualified leads. His focus is AI automation, partnerships, video content, and campaign management, deployed as an integrated funnel rather than isolated tactics.
Jared learned to win as the underdog. Steady marketing systems beat scattered campaigns, and the same playbook now helps local owners outrank the bigger names in their market. He runs every engagement toward one outcome: put the marketing engine that national brands rely on into the hands of local owners, and turn it into more booked jobs and steadier revenue.
