Ryan has been a member of the Force Elite staff for nearly 10 years and is currently a competition coach and judge. He became active in cheerleading during college at Georgia College (GCSU) in Milledgeville, GA. "I did it because after playing football at Parkview High School, I was not able to obtain a scholarship... so this was my way of providing a means to get through school. I enjoyed it so much, that I wanted to be an influence to many young people", said Ryan during our conversation. "I have been coaching for 8 years and I coached Central Gwinnett High School in 2007 and now I am the Competition Cheerleading Coach for South Gwinnett High School."
"Many girls from the communities of Loganville and Snellville attend classes [at Force Elite] to better themselves for the upcoming seasons. All and all we enjoy working with kids."

Live From 30052: What is the most rewarding aspect of coaching to you?
Ryan: "My most rewarding part of coaching is trying to be a good influence and to make a difference in the lives of the people I interact with. It's rewarding to see them grow up and become a dedicated and respectful individual. The challenge is to get every team on the same page, so if I feel everybody comes together, I have done my job. We all want to win, but Its not always about winning or losing. Its about making a difference."
Live From 30052: What are your favorite Loganville businesses?
Ryan: "Home Depot, Shane's Rib Shack, Ruby Tuesday, Sugar Kneads, Rivals Hot Dogs, Chick-Fil-A."
