The Paramedic behind the Book
Who is Ryan Herrington?
Ryan Herrington / Author
Ryan Herrington is a former Denver paramedic, a survivor of a thousand midnight calls, and a storyteller who knows the stakes of life and death firsthand. After more than a decade on the streets, he traded trauma shears for a keyboard—channeling years of real-world experience into dark, high-stakes fiction.
His debut novel, The Trilogy Project, pulls no punches. Drawing from the raw emotional terrain of emergency medicine, corporate overreach, and digital surveillance, Herrington writes thrillers that don’t just entertain—they interrogate. His work explores the moral gray zones of modern healthcare, the psychological scars of trauma, and what happens when those sworn to protect life become the ones who decide its worth.
He lives in Colorado with his wife and children, where he divides his time between writing, roasting coffee, and overthinking everything.
Ryan Herrington / Paramedic
Ryan Herrington is a former Denver paramedic who spent a decade on the sharp end of emergency medicine. Rising from rookie EMT to lead paramedic and field-training officer, he guided crews through mass-casualty incidents, active-shooter responses, and high-altitude mountain rescues across Colorado. Whether resuscitating gunshot victims in alleyways at 3 a.m. or orchestrating multi-agency operations during city-wide crises, he lived every shift on the knife-edge between saving lives and losing them. Those years of unflinching medical grit—and the psychological scars they left—now fuel the relentless authenticity at the heart of his writing.
