Ryan Pultz

RYAN PULTZ is a man whose life has been forged in the crucibles of the California Central Valley, the backwoods of the Pacific Northwest, and the high-speed inversions of the Midwest. Born into a world of chaos and raised by his gandparents-founding members of a small Baptist church-Ryan's journey has never been a straight line. From a troubled youth to a radical encounter with God at thirteen that pulled him back from the brink of despair, he has spent over thirty-five years living at the intersection of grit and faith.

A veteran promoter and manager in the music industry, Ryan has spent decades in the dark venues and loud soundchecks where the gospel often gets its hands dirty. He spent twenty-three years building a life in Portland, Oregon, with the love of his life, Joyce, and their son, Daniel. During that season, he waged a successful, brutal war for his own health, losing over 200 pounds and reclaiming his life from the shell of a 400-pound man.

In 2022, after a fierce battle with metastatic breast cancer, Ryan watched his navigator go home to the Lord. Left as a solo father to an autistic son, he made the terrifying leap of faith to pack up his life, his Jeep, and a pack of rescue animals to move two thousand miles to Battle Creek, Michigan.

Today, Ryan is the owner of RP Consulting Group, a dedicated solo dad, and a chronic "coaster enthusiast" who has ridden over 300 roller coasters across the country. Whether he's hiking twenty miles deep into the wilderness, managing social media campaigns, or sitting on his front porch with a fine cigar and a heavy metal record, Ryan remains an honest, scarred witness to the Master Builder's grace. He writes from the dirt, leaving his porch light on for the next guy who needs to find their way through the smoke.
