Ryan Altman, a 2005 graduate from San Diego, was a highly active member of the student council during his years at Pacific College. He created the used book sale, founded and edited The Point newsletter, instigated the healthy vending machine in the student lounge, and created the Veterinary Acupuncture Club.

Ryan currently lives and works in San Diego, where he practices mostly Japanese Classical acupuncture. He owns and operates two other businesses, Healthy Vending Options and Alternative Healing Network, Inc., which is a nonprofit designed to promote integrative healing and healthy living to the public.

Ryan also produces the San Diego Healing Arts Festival, an event in Balboa Park that hosts live music, free massage and acupuncture consultations provided by PCOM, free yoga classes from Ginseng Yoga, free Qi Gong classes from the Taoist Sanctuary, presentations on capoeira, tai chi, world beat dance and a vendor fair.

Ryan's hobbies include live music, politics, film, theater and world travel. He studied yoga in India, Reiki in Israel and massage in Thailand. His interest in Oriental medicine was sparked after being saved from altitude sickness by a traditional herbal decoction in Tibet.

"Upon returning to the United States, I knew I wanted to continue my studies in integrative/alternative healing arts," said Ryan. "PCOM was one of the only courses that would give an actual master's degree for the work."
