Ryan L. Jones has spent the majority of his professional career creating documentaries around the world.

Whether it’s telling stories of hope and injustice across Africa, editing behind-the-scenes content for musicians or profiling professional athletes in Asia, Ryan has always had a knack for bringing unconventional stories from unusual places to life.

Most recently, his documentary work has taken him to the Arctic Circle where he has spent the last year profiling Indigenous activists, artists and elders.

Throughout all of these experiences, Ryan has been moving towards one goal - to become a professional filmmaker who tells meaningful stories. He believes filmmakers can challenge societal norms, ignite empathy, and incite change with the stories they tell.
