Basically, from day one, Ryan Horn felt like Texas Tech University was the place where he could see himself, find himself and be himself.
When you know, you know.
“From a college experience, it was a step into a world that I didn’t know existed,” he said. “You finish high school and step out on your own. You’re not living at home anymore. But I feel like I can point to being in Lubbock and at Texas Tech as where I really found out who I was.”
Today, Ryan is the vice president of marketing for AdRoll, a marketing and advertising company based in San Francisco. He offices in Fort Worth and landed the job just a few months ago. He leads a team of approximately 35 people.
Ryan has been deliberate in his professional marketing career, moving only when he felt the time was right or a new challenge awaited him. He credits his time at Texas Tech and in the Jerry S. Rawls College of Business, where he earned a bachelor’s degree in business management in 2006, for preparing him.
