Ryan is a proponent of getting the government out of the way and letting individuals create solutions to the problems of today.

Criminal Justice: Everyone seems to agree we that we have a flawed criminal “justice” system, but nothing ever seems to get done about it.
Election Reform: Voters deserve secure and transparent elections. Access to the ballot should be unencumbered for candidates and voters.

Ryan lives in Atlanta with his partner, Laura, and their daughter, Elizabeth. He works as a Project Manager in software development. He has a passion for empowering individuals to overcome the issues of the day without one-size-fits-all solutions from politicians.
No campaign for this race responded to our questionnaire, and we could not find responses to all of our questions on the candidates' websites. These are the additional questions we believe any candidate seeking this role should have responses to:
Economists predict that the US is nearing a recession. What policies would propose to help Georgians weather an economic downturn?
The cost of living has exploded across the country. Georgia has seen record-breaking increases in housing costs and rent in 2022. What measures do you support to improve housing affordability?
What should be done in our state to protect the public from gun violence in the wake of the Uvalde, Texas and Buffalo, NY mass shootings?
An estimated 1.4 million Georgians do not have health insurance, making our uninsured rate the third highest in the country. Do you believe the government has a role in addressing this coverage gap? If so, what policies do you support?
Do you support the enactment of Georgia’s Election Integrity Act of 2021 (S.B. 202)? Why or why not? What other policies related to voting would you support?
What is your position on abortion? Do you support Georgia’s 2019 law, H.B. 481, which prohibits abortion after 6 weeks? What other policies related to abortion do you support?
An estimated 10% of people living in Georgia are immigrants. Our state also hosts several migrant detention centers, with the Folkston center expected to be one of the largest in the nation after the Biden administration approved its expansion earlier this year. What is your stance on immigration, and how do you foresee working with the Federal government on issues related to immigration?
Do you believe there is a problem that exists and needs to be addressed regarding policing? What steps can the Governor’s office take to improve public safety and address concerns about policing in a way that supports trust, safety, and community?
Note: We welcome any responses from candidates who did not previously answer our questionnaire request.
