Ryan is the President of Bali Institute and has been with the company since it began operating educational programs in 2009. Since then he has designed and lead hundreds of student and adult programs with client groups from America, Australia, Europe and elsewhere. He has been instrumental in working with a variety of curriculum to bridge immersive Balinese experiences with academic topics.
Ryan has extensive experience designing and facilitating workshops, seminars and conferences focused on multi-generational collaboration for social change. He also developed training programs as a fellow of the World Café and served as Thrive Hub Coordinator at Generation Waking Up in the U.S.
He has recently created and launched an Indonesian foundation *Makadaya* as an outgrowth of Bali Institute’s impact work with university students and faculty, and experiential programs with high schoolers. His dream is to make sustainable travel a reality by using funds from Bali Institute to serve local changemakers trying to solve social and environmental issues.
Ryan has lived in Bali for over 12 years. He and his Balinese wife have two beautiful and playful sons ages 5 and one.
