Ryan George

Ryan George has held one job in his time at Simpleview — a responsibility he took on when he founded the company in February 2001. As CEO, he provides strategy and direction for the company, oversees its growth and operations through a cadre of highly skilled executives, and works to build industry knowledge and leadership in employees throughout the company.

Ryan is a frequent speaker at travel and tourism events, serves on the Destinations International Foundation Board of Trustees and a number of boards of directors and is a member of Tucson Conquistadores, a philanthropy group supporting youth athletics and community groups.

In theory, one day Ryan will retire and open a hot rod shop, but if you've got a '69 Chevelle or '37 Ford Deluxe that you're dying to trick out, you should probably start without him: other than family, Simpleview is Ryan's nucleus and universe, and should be.
