He continued his financial planning practice in Ann Arbor, Michigan.

During this time he wrote the book "Got MELC?" and wrote articles for "Life Insurance Selling", a national trade journal.

Ryan separated from M&O Marketing in 2013, to help create Horizon Wealth Management, the predecessor to Horizon Advisers. He uses his past experience to assist his clients in working toward achieving their goals, and utilizes his leadership skills to continue to expand the Horizon team. In 2015, Ryan helped put together an acquisition of a CPA firm, and then in 2016, Ryan helped create Horizon Advisers
and merge two other tax practices.
