Ryan Campbell is not your average pilot. At the age of 19, he made history by becoming the youngest person to fly solo around the world. But his story is far more than just a record-breaking feat. From surviving a plane crash to thriving as a best-selling author and motivational speaker, Ryan’s journey is one of resilience, courage, and unwavering determination.
Ryan’s love for aviation was ignited at a young age, and by the time he was 15, he had earned his pilot’s license. His ambition led him to dream of circumnavigating the globe solo, a feat that seemed unimaginable for someone his age. Yet, in 2013, at just 19 years old, Ryan embarked on a journey that would not only test his flying skills but also his inner strength.
Over the course of 70 days, Ryan flew over 24,000 nautical miles, crossing oceans, continents, and challenging weather conditions. His journey captured the world’s attention and earned him a place in the record books as the youngest solo pilot to circumnavigate the globe.
However, Ryan’s journey took a dramatic turn in 2015 when he was involved in a plane crash that left him with incomplete paraplegia. Despite facing immense physical and emotional challenges, Ryan refused to let his circumstances define him. Instead, he turned his adversity into an opportunity to inspire others.
Ryan became a passionate advocate for spinal cord injury research and awareness, using his platform to raise funds and support for organizations dedicated to finding a cure. His resilience in the face of adversity has earned him admiration and respect from people around the world.
In addition to his achievements in aviation and advocacy, Ryan is also a best-selling author. His memoir, “Flying through Adversity,” chronicles his journey from aspiring pilot to world record holder to plane crash survivor. Through his candid storytelling and inspirational message, Ryan shares valuable lessons on overcoming challenges, embracing change, and finding purpose in adversity.
Ryan Campbell is not just a pilot; he is a beacon of hope and inspiration for individuals and organizations facing their own challenges. As a keynote speaker, Ryan brings a unique blend of passion, resilience, and authenticity to every presentation.
