This week officially marks RYN’s one year anniversary! We could not have come this far had it not been for all of you and the many supporters and hard workers who have been with us from the beginning. To reminisce on the past year we are going down the nostalgic road and compiling the highlights of the RYN team. Speaking of the RYN team…. We have some very exciting news to share!
We would like to formally introduce and congratulate Johnny Avant - aka our new Chief Technology Officer! We could not be more ecstatic to have him on the team. Johnny is also a University of Cincinnati Alum who has 5+ years of engineering and computer science experience and is currently pursuing a PhD in machine learning (ML). Please give him a warm welcome to the community!
Now let's dive right into the sentimental memories that you all have helped create throughout the past year.
1. Full Circle Moment
Our very first blog and Instagram post were about what we're creating here at RYN. The whole team feels blessed to get to continue on RYN's mission for another year and we can't wait to report back on the growth on our next anniversary. If you want to read our first blog again, check it out here!
2. Launch it Cincy
A huge shoutout and thank you to Main Street Ventures- a local startup accelerator that provides mentorships and funding to local companies. We met so many great start-up friends through this program and gained access to some incredible resources that we are still using today! If you're a current university student or recent grad with a startup or small business, we highly recommend this program!
3. OOTD’s
Shoutout to our amazing girlboss founder Camryn Ellis. Her consistency in showcasing her outfit of the day styled by RYN has been the highlight of my Instagram feed.
4. Our 1st of many, many, many photoshoots
Throughout the seasons the RYN team has gathered up models and curated outfits created through RYN to generate the content you see on the blogs and Instagram. The team is a committed and scrappy bunch, from shooting in almost 90-degree weather to being chased off a property, we did it all for the sake of RYN!
5. Moral based Brand
There are several moral and ethical standards that RYN was built upon. We try our best to reflect these in our blog topics, in what we post, and in how we style. Fashion is a part of our daily life and affects us more than we might think. We strive to be the first choice when choosing how to start your day so that you can set yourself up for success.
As always thank you all so much for your support. Let's begin another great year full of memories and growth. As a reminder we are still collecting beta testers - if you or any family/friends are interested in seeing what RYN is like, sign up here or contact us on socials @therynapp on all platforms. We will see you next week!
