“Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish” a Steve Jobs quote taken from the Whole Earth Catalog and lived by Ryan Moor over his 16-year career in this industry.

In March when COVID-19 hit, Ryan began immediately to pivot his business making masks instead of t-shirts and medical equipment instead of screen-printing presses. To help motivate and inspire the garment industry, he started a vlog called the Viral Entrepreneur to document the journey as we #PressOnward together. @ryanmoor www.instagram.com/ryanmoor
