At age 26, Ryan founded his company Wealth Assistants to help investors build generational wealth through done-for-you e-commerce services that drive a higher ROI than most traditional investments. After the first year in business, his company scaled from 5 people to over 250 team members, to managing over $90 million in e-commerce sales and partnering with key players in the e-commerce world such as Cart.com. His big goal is for Wealth Assistants to own 1% of Amazon's market share by 2032, and simply to help more people build the generational wealth he believes they deserve.
