Ryan Tubbs

Q: Would you provide our readers with a quick biographical sketch of Ryan Tubbs—where you grew up, where you went to school, who/when you married, kids, church, work?

My wife and I had the privilege of growing up here in North Texas. I was the youngest in the family to an older brother and sister. My parents were hard-working role models for my siblings and me. My dad worked for UPS, and my mom had several jobs across the years, but she thrived the most taking care of us kids. I met my wife, Carmen in 2006, through a mutual friend, when I was a junior at North Garland High School. After we graduated from high school, I attended Richland College and Carmen attended SMU.

In 2013, just after Carmen’s graduation, I married my high school sweetheart and the love of my life. Soon after, we bought a home in Allen and had our first baby girl. In 2017, when our second daughter was on the way, we moved to Celina to raise our family in a community with which we could grow and that was a safe area with great schools. Our daughters, Aria and Cora, are now 7 and 5, respectively. My family faithfully attends Rock Creek Church where our mission is to help people meet and follow Jesus. Carmen works for Salt & Light Laundry Services, and I am an IT Manager for American National Bank of Texas based over in Terrell, Texas.
