Hello, I’m Ryan!Ryry

I work as a Senior Web Developer for BOOMj.com, Inc. I’ve been with the company since its early stages, and am considered one of its Founding Members. I am also a shareholder of the company, so in essence you could say I’m a part-owner.

When I took on the job with BOOMj, I had no idea how much work I would be in for. I went from working part-time, 25 hours a week, at my dad’s lumberyard to 50+ hours a week of nonstop coding, development, and self-inflicted baldness.

Educated from home through an independent study program, I earned my High School Diploma at the ripe age of sixteen and a near half. The following fall, I enrolled in University of California, Irvine’s Digital Arts Extension Courses. I graduated from that program three years later with a very fancy certificate and an ego to match.

I bunny-hopped from job to job for most of the years after graduating from UCI, holding several positions such as Graphic Designer, Multimedia Technician, Art Director, Creative Director, and finally, Sr. Web Developer. While I’m happy with my present position, I’d love to be Creative Director again someday.

That’s pretty much all you need to know for now. Please see my disclaimer, too!
