Ryan Lee

Ryan is an established entrepreneur, having founded three successful companies before cofounding Blue Raven Solar. Ryan started in direct sales in 1996 and is entering his 19th year in the industry. Ryan was a finalist for the Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year Award in 2010. Prior to starting Blue Raven, Ryan was the cofounder of Silver Creek Pest Control, a company that grew to be one of the largest pest control companies in the nation as measured by yearly volume (20,000 new accounts per year). Silver Creek was successfully sold to ServiceMaster, a Fortune 500 company. Ryan then founded AMP Security, one of the leading home security companies in the nation, in 2007. AMP grew rapidly from inception and made the Inc. 500/5000 list in both 2012 & 2013. AMP Security is still operating and continuing to build value for its shareholders. Ryan received his MBA from the BYU Marriott School in 2001 with an emphasis in finance. In his rare free time, he enjoys travel—especially to Europe with his wife.
