Ryan Hop

Walters Gardens

Chief Operating Officer

• Leading a team that built “what I consider to be one of the best ERP systems available.” It has allowed the company to make better decisions and work more efficiently.
• He is a graduate of the Executive Academy for Growth & Leadership (EAGL) with Charlie Hall. “This experience really helped me understand how to set direction and implement change to make our business better … and connected me to an awesome network of supportive colleagues.”

Great Escape: His favorite vacation spot is Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. “It doesn’t get a good cell signal, so the distractions of daily life aren’t there.”

Needs His Daily Jolt: Ryan says he can’t live without caffeine. “I despise coffee but cannot function with caffeine. White MONSTER is my favorite.”
