“As I watched Ryan Sallans tell us his story…I kept looking at the faces of the students in the audience. They were listening as closely as I was – and with similar respect. I realized that Ryan was probably saving the life of someone in that room, and that I could multiply that saved life many times over.”
“I cannot say enough how much the JMU community truly enjoyed and learned from Ryan. The professional development for a trans inclusive campus provided an opportunity for meaningful learning and discussion among our Student Affairs professionals. The campus-wide presentation Sexing Ed was incredible! I looked around several times throughout to see students that were completely absorbed. Ryan has the ability to engage audience members, he is an outstanding speaker.”
“If you’re looking for a speaker who can address the subtleties and nuances of sex, gender, gender identity, and gender expression without confusing beginners or offending more knowledgeable audience members, I highly recommend Ryan Sallans for your next program.”
“Ryan presented at our conference for therapists on what clinicians should know about transgender issues. He was warm, funny, engaging and articulate. The audience asked many questions and there was not a single question he was unable to answer. His speaking evaluations were excellent. I highly recommend Ryan as a speaker.”
“Our primary goal in the grant project was to help our campus become more trans-inclusive. We were looking for a warm, authentic and knowledgeable person to help campus administrators, faculty and staff create a welcoming and inclusive community. Ryan did all of that and more! By meeting with trans and gender nonconforming students the evening prior to the training and learning their concerns, he was able to make the session relevant and real for our own campus.”
