Speaker
Jack Ryan
Jack was born and raised in Shropshire, UK, spending five years in the construction industry before losing his sight at the start of the pandemic.
From running races and completing triathlons to skydiving and multi-day cycle tours, he is carving his own path through a life seen by some as unconventional and by many others as impossible. Jack's mission is to adventure all over the globe and explore the limits of what is seen as possible. Through this, he endeavors to bring back lessons learned and knowledge that will help others overcome challenges and live their life to the fullest. He offers a perspective that can help others to carve their own path, both professionally and personally, whether they are visually impaired or not.
