About

Big problems, simple products

I'm a product lead and founder drawn to big, system-level problems. UX is a real passion, and what drives me is creating products people love, ones that make their lives or businesses better.

I start top down, mapping the workflow and digging into the data and pain points, then explore solutions and test them through discovery before anything is built. For three years I owned the digital joining journeys at David Lloyd Clubs, Europe's leading health and fitness club operator, across web, app and in-club.

Since June 2026 I've been building MoveView, a 0 to 1 B2B platform for UK property sales. I run it end to end, from ideation to go-to-market. AI is built into how I work every day. I use Claude to make sense of interviews and research, and Lovable to turn ideas into working prototypes in days. I then use those prototypes to validate the commercial case with customers.

Before that, I founded and ran Define Wellness, a direct-to-consumer fitness brand. I owned the whole business, from product strategy and P&L to a global supply chain, and launched four fitness products, physical and digital, growing sales through Amazon search, listing content and paid ads.

Earlier this year I moved from the UK to Kelowna, BC, with my wife and daughter. Outside work you'll usually find me running, in the gym, paddleboarding or skiing.

What people say

In their words

“Ryan was someone I could trust. I gave him space to try new things, and he always took that responsibility seriously. When he hit a tough problem, he worked it through and figured it out. What stood out most was how well he connected the business, the technology and our members, and how naturally he worked with people across so many different teams. Everyone wanted to work with him, and the results followed. I'd happily work with him again. Any product team would be lucky to have him.”
Mark WilliamsDigital Director, David Lloyd Clubs
“Ryan was a phenomenal asset to our digital team. He approached his work with calmness, precision and applied data and insight to deliver incredible results in a fast paced and demanding environment. Quietly driven he was always looking to learn and grow beyond his role to add value, which was consistently recognised by his colleagues and senior stakeholders.”
