Marshall European Center for Security Studies (GCMC) Federal Employee spanning the Education (1701), Inventory Management (2010), Inspector General (1801), and Administrative (0301) career series.
Ryan has extensive experience in service academy leadership coaching, program management, logistics operations, stakeholder engagement, interviewing, and technical report writing. He appreciates the importance of humility, trust, and patience when forming relationships with clients as they seek opportunities to serve in the federal government.
Until recently Ryan was an Inspector General (IG) Division Chief on the HQ USAFE-AFAFRICA team. During his IG tenure, he led seven major inspections, arbitrated 2 Commandant Command assessments, interviewed 44 Commanders, conducted 51 Airmen sensing sessions, and a complex senior leader inquiry.

Whether producing “Leaders of Character” while commanding at the U.S. Air Force Academy or evaluating the character of leaders in his recent Inspector General role, Ryan has learned teams flourish when organizations promote a climate of trust supported by calming, collaborative, integrity driven leadership.
