About Ryan
I am a composer and educator based in New York and I've composed for NYC ensembles including: Ensemble Pamplemousse, Wet Ink, New Thread Quartet, Chartreuse String Trio, Talea Ensemble, Yarn/Wire and several soloists. I completed my Doctorate in composition at Columbia University where I currently teach Music Humanities. My article "Relative Intonation: Non-Symmetrical Implications of Linear and Logarithmic Intervallic Measurement" was published in TEMPO in 2023.

I had the opportunity to co-teach a graduate-level composition course for interdisciplinary artists with Ryan. Ryan is not only professional and approachable but also brings a genuine belief that everyone has the potential to be a composer. His deep knowledge of classical music, along with his adaptable teaching style, enables him to meet students at their individual levels, making composition accessible and inspiring across advanced academic and introductory contexts.
