As an actor, Ryan shared the screen with the likes of Robin Williams and Don Johnson and later went on to become part of the MTV Comedy Tour. However through the power of the Gospel, God radically changed Ryan’s life and brought him back to his first love, the church. Armed with simply a desire to follow God and serve, Ryan spent the next 15+ years serving the hurting, the lost, the people that society often turns a blind eye towards. Through outreach programs in some of Los Angeles’ most crime ridden areas, Ryan continued to see God do miracle after miracle in the lives of people that were thought to be lost causes.

Known for his energetic, humorous, motivational style, Ryan was able to connect with people who though they would never step foot inside of a church. This led to Ryan Pastoring one of the largest churches in the state of Arizona, that boasted having the largest human trafficking rescue group in the world. In 2019, Ryan and his wife Rose moved to San Diego to start the Outreach Ministry WeLuvSanDiego which today helps produce the largest food outreach program in San Diego County, serving over 60,000lbs of food to 10,000+ people each week. In addition to their food outreach program, WeLuvSanDiego’s, “Thrive” program focuses on foster care prevention, reunification and aged out assistance. With the moto, “Find a Need and Fill It, Find a Hurt and Heal It,” WeLuvSanDiego’s mission is to be a light in the darkness to the city of San Diego and beyond.
