Ryan Williams
Music Arranger
Ryan Williams brings to East Pennsboro more than 25 seasons of marching band experience spanning 15 years in the activity. He has served in a variety of roles as a marching member and instructor, including visual and music technician through arranger and designer.
Ryan began his career as an instructor immediately after graduating from high school, working with Mechanicsburg High School’s marching band, helping to lead the band to success, and eventually to an Atlantic Coast Championship in 1999. As he gained experience, Ryan moved after bigger roles with other band programs and became the head visual instructor with West Perry High School in 2000 and 2001. After a year off spent in Basic Training with the United States Army, Ryan moved to East Pennsboro, at first as a music and visual technician. Currently, Ryan works on the East Pennsboro design team, working with the visual staff and band director to develop the show concepts, and then putting that idea on paper in the form of music arrangements.
Away from East Penn, Ryan has completed his Bachelor’s of Science in Music Education at York College, in York, Pennsylvania. He now teaches band and music at Perry Hall High School, near Baltimore. In addition to teaching high school band, Ryan also serves as an enlisted bandsman in the United States Army Reserve as an instrumentalist and the unit’s resident arranger.
