Ryan believes that outcomes matter more than ideology. His focus is on solving problems, not scoring political points. He breaks down challenges into their core pieces, uses data and evidence to guide decisions, and keeps working until he finds what works. As a councilmember, he has fought to deliver affordable housing, expanded transit, safer neighborhoods, and stronger small businesses — not because these solutions were politically convenient, but because they were what our communities needed. Ryan brings a relentless commitment to problem-solving and a belief that government should deliver real results.
