Ryan O’Connell is Life Teen’s very own (and highly acclaimed) video producer, writer, director, editor, and master of disguise. Ryan is best known for his starring roles as Idol Chatter and Abrasive Abner. He is also very well known for his backflips and super sweet dance moves. But, above all, Ryan’s video work for Life Teen is a breath of fresh air as he strives to remain on the cutting edge of culture while injecting healthy doses of comedy and timeless truths about the human condition. When Ryan isn’t meticulously tweaking an edit for a Life Teen creation, you can find him teaching film courses at Grand Canyon University, doting on his beautiful wife Amy, or playing guitar for his three daughters Clairvaux, Adelaide, and Isla. He also loves defending the faith on social media and getting unreasonably angry when someone says “the book was better than the movie.”
