Ryan started his career in venture at Mobius Venture Capital in January 2000, just before the bursting of the first internet bubble.
Prior to becoming a VC, Ryan co-founded the early internet search engine Excite in 1993, which went public on NASDAQ in April 1996 and later became Excite@Home following the merger of Excite and @Home in 1999, and was one of the top five websites in the early innings of the world wide web.
Ryan was a software engineer at Excite, and his experience there at the dawn of the web building the infrastructure to support a large-scale consumer-facing site informs his predilection to invest in developer-focused products and services as well as enterprise and consumer-facing businesses.
Ryan holds a bachelor’s degree in Symbolic Systems from Stanford University.
