Gillian Rene Ryan (born October 1, 1995 in Allentown, Pennsylvania)[1] is an American swimmer from Kutztown, Pennsylvania. She has won a US National Championship in the 800m freestyle,[2][3] as well as two golds in the Pan American Games.[4] She is living in Baltimore, Maryland, where she is taking cyber courses from Kutztown High School so she can train at North Baltimore Aquatic Club. Ryan made the switch to the club that has produced 10 Olympians, including Michael Phelps, to remain with coach Erik Posegay. She learned that Posegay was moving to NBAC shortly after her return from Lima, Peru, where she won silver and bronze medals at the FINA World Junior Swimming Championships in 2011. Within two weeks, she was living in Baltimore and training at the club.[5] Ryan was part of the 2012 United States Olympic Trials, finishing fourth at the 400m and seventh at the 800m.[6]

On September 9, 2013, Ryan made a commitment to swim for Mike Bottom and the Michigan Wolverines at University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, Michigan for the start of the 2014 season.[7]
