At the age of ten Ryan started a small modeling career for Nordstrom and other local retailers. Later, Ryan started acting in his father's church performing in various plays including "Godspell" and "He lived the Good Life".

Being called back to Los Angeles, Ryan acted in independent films such as the award-winning feature Mercy (2003) written and directed by his close friend John Fitzpatrick.
