This month's #FeatureFriday shines the spotlight on Ryan Lidke, LEED AP, Vice President of Development Services. With over 23 years in the construction and real estate industry, Ryan has spent the last 9 years making a significant impact at VanTrust's Columbus office. "Ryan has been an integral part of the VanTrust team. Many of the successful Columbus region’s projects have been delivered under his careful management. He has the great ability to communicate with the project team in a way that gets everyone rowing the same direction, even when faced with difficult challenges. His current leadership of the Columbus Development Services team is simply a continuation of his exceptional ability to organize and communicate with everyone. We are lucky to have him leading the charge.," said Bret Sheffield, CCIM, Executive Vice President, Development Services. "The VanTrust Team has such a great culture with even better people that has allowed myself to continue to grow within the Real Estate industry. I really enjoy the variety of work and the challenges of figuring out a deal from the start to finish that allows everyone to be successful," said Ryan. Originally from Bellevue, OH, Ryan graduated from Ohio State University with a Bachelor's degree in Construction Management and was a member of the Ohio State basketball team, reaching the Final Four in 1999. Outside of work, Ryan enjoys spending time with his wife of 20 years, Lisa, their two children, Wyatt (17) and Gracyn (14), and their dog, Cash (named after Johnny Cash). The family loves staying active with school and travel sports, and they often retreat to their property in Athens, OH for hunting, fishing, and outdoor adventures. Join us in celebrating Ryan's accomplishments and contributions to our team!
