Hi, my name is Ryan and this is my online portfolio. I'm a content writer and editor with over a decade of experience through a wide range of media. Notable clients include The University Wits, Teen Truth, Epic Entertainment, the YMCA, and the University of Texas. I can be reached at [email protected]
Blogs
This email blast had an open rate of 281%. The blog post remains one of the most visited on the site. I've written and edited several blog posts and email campaigns for TEEN TRUTH and its counterpart RISING UP.
I worked to develop the curriculum for Rising Up, and helped to develop both the text and design of the accompanying website.
I worked on quite a few pages for EPIC Entertainment. I also helped to construct their sales script, and several employee modules.
Books
The first of three books coauthored with therapist JC Pohl. It acts as a guide for cultivating positive culture in both middle and high schools.
The second of three books coauthored with JC Pohl explores best practices for using adversity to develop self sovereignty.
The final of three books coauthored with JC Pohl. We utilized a relational needs model to develop a method for improving workplace relationships.
Other
In addition to the work I did for EPIC's webpage, I also worked (and on occasion, still work) as a typewriter poet! It's probably the coolest writing gig in the world.
Here's a brief, slightly more technical document. I was given the opportunity to create an updated fitness assessment for YMCA Townlake with my colleague, Rhonda Huynh. The assessment remains in regular use by personal trainers at the YMCA.
Here is a sample from my own work of fiction. The first draft has been completed, and needs quite a bit of editing, but it's fun so I wanted to share.
