Ryan Evans

Full Stack Developer

About

I recently graduated from The Flatiron School's Full Stack Web Developer program. I also have a background in Operations and Upper Management positions within diverse industries. I am known for my strong skills in leadership, communication and big-picture thinking. I decided to make a career transition and attend The Flatiron School through a desire for a more creative career and a better work-life balance.

Fifteen years ago, my wife and I moved from New York City to the beautiful Pacific Northwest. We have an almost 3-year-old daughter and love getting outside, whether it’s hiking, stand-up paddleboarding, biking or skiing.  We’ve also enjoyed traveling (and hiking) in places like South Korea, Scotland, Italy, Norway and London.
