Ryan Steffe

Job Titles:
  • Head Solar Consultant
Ryan, the son of Yasmin Steffe, was born in 2001. His mother ran a business called Women's First Health and Fitness, which aimed to assist women with post-natal depression and losing baby fat. In 2009, Yasmin met Doug at an Isagenix function in Sanctuary Cove. Together, they ran a seminar called "Are You Killing Your Children?" from Yasmin's home, where they educated parents on the importance of healthy eating for children. Ryan is a perceptive and compassionate individual who understands the needs of the people he serves. While attending school, he worked 40-50 hours per week at Coles Supermarkets, starting as a "sexy checkout chick" and eventually becoming the youngest store manager in Queensland. Though this was against the rules, his principal and teachers recognized that he was on a different path than most. After leaving school, Doug invited Ryan to join The Solar Broker. They took a road trip together to Newcastle, New South Wales, where Doug educated Ryan on how to help people benefit from solar energy. Over the past three years, Doug and Ryan have worked together to scale the business into what it is today. They are committed to continued growth and helping as many people as possible.
