Hi, I'm Ryan Healy. I'm a recent graduate of Penn State's Smeal College of Business. After college, I started my career in Washington DC as a financial consultant with IBM Global Business Services. During that time, I became extremely (and maybe strangely) interested in Human Capital and work-life issues, specifically as they related to generational differences in the workplace. In March 2007 I teamed up with my old college buddy Ryan Paugh to start the Generation Y career blog, Employee Evolution, and began my new life writing about and discussing issues relating to Generation Y at work.

I'm now a Co-Founder of Brazen Careerist. I live in Madison, Wisconsin, and spend the majority of my time developing new product strategies and working closely with the development team to create unique features and products for our community. I spend the rest of my time keeping an eye on our finances and traveling the country to speak with current and potential corporate clients.

I'm passionate about creating change in the workplace. I truly believe that everyone can, and should enjoy their jobs. Recently I was selected to attend as one of 25 nationally recognized Human Resource thought leaders, a Future of Work Conference sponsored by Accenture. The conference reaffirmed my belief that corporate America is headed in the right direction, even if it takes us some time to get there.

I regularly speak at conferences, organizations and universities on topics ranging from workplace flexibility to bridging the generation gap. I've been quoted in print publications including The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, and Business Week and I've appeared as a spokesperson for the new generation of workers on CBS's 60 Minutes and National Public Radio.
