Ryan is a board member of the International Women’s Baseball Center (IWBC). We first connected back in 2016 when my old organization, the BIG Vision Foundation, in partnership with the IWBC sponsored the Ruth Hartman Memorial Girl’s Baseball Festival.
At the time, Ryan was living in Wilmington, Delaware and wasn’t a member of the IWBC board yet. He wasn’t sure if he really should to drive up to check out the event. After some convincing from his friend, Debbie Pierson, he did go, and it turned out to literally be a life changing event for him.
A few weeks later, he received a call from IWBC president, Kat Williams asking him to serve on the organizations board. He accepted, and the rest is history. Ryan was the brainchild of the IWBC’s Women in Baseball Week and has been an active member of the board since he joined the organization.

Anyone who knows me, knows that baseball is in my blood, so to get to visit the Field of Dreams site was pretty exciting for me to say the least.
Ever since I can remember, baseball has been a part of my life. For me, it was always about more than just the game itself. It was the entire experience. From seeing a perfectly groomed field before the game begins, the smell of the fresh cut grass, the sight of the perfectly straight white lines which have been applied with mastery. Those lines and their perfect 90-degree angles. Their contrast on the brown infield dirt and bright green outfield grass. It is truly about as perfect of a scene that a human could create.
The hustle and bustle of the crowd, the smell of the hot dogs, peanuts, and popcorn. All of it combined makes it so much more than just a game for me.
