Ryan Levis is a big picture thinker and Artistic Director of the Big Ideas Club (UVSS) for nearly five years. In that time he produced Shakespeare’s plays, developed marketing design strategies, held think tanks, and networked. He founded the club during his BA (2011) for the purpose of producing art. Ryan majored in Greek and Roman Studies and minored in Business. As a lover of stories, board games, wine, plays, ancients, myth, innovation and modern business Ryan’s personal dossier is a complex map of oddly connectable themes. For three consecutive years Ryan ran for the top spot on student council (Chairperson) as an Independent candidate.
He is audacious and capable of laughing at himself. For this Ryan won the Toronto-based entrepreneurship competition (Impact Apprentice) which has given him a national network and roots of a supply chain; however he has yet to find his first investor. With a nudge from the Awesome Shit Club Ryan Levis stands closer to the credibility he seeks.
