Hi, I'm Ryan D Downs, a versatile broadcasting professional based in Twin Falls, Idaho. I blend on-air hosting, production, and voiceover work across CSN Radio and Effect Radio Networks. I've served as a producer for the nationally syndicated To Every Man an Answer, co-produced Voice of Truth, screened calls, and provided voiceover for promotions. I'm proficient as a board operator and audio editor using Adobe Audition, and I produce River Christian Fellowship’s Live! AM Sermon broadcast. I also host and co-host radio segments such as Manic Mornings with AJ and Ryan, Totally Throwback Thursdays, and Eternal Rhythm Revolution with DJ D-Downs. Beyond broadcasting, I have a broad background in aviation operations—ground control, ramp supervision, and customer service—across SkyWest Airlines and related companies. I also have teaching experience as a substitute teacher in several Idaho and Nevada districts, and acting and media experience in theatre, television, and film. I bring strong communication, organization, and production skills to every project.
