Williston Financial Group appointed Ryan Ozonian as senior director of innovation and AI.
In this newly created role, Ozonian will focus on advancing artificial intelligence (AI) and automation initiatives that are part of WFG’s larger enterprise technology program, MyHome. He will also be responsible for identifying, developing and deploying AI-driven tools and process automation designed to enhance operational efficiency, improve user experiences and deliver measurable value to WFG’s customers and partners.
As part of his role, Ozonian will lead the company’s growing ATS Team (AI – Automations & Technology Solutions), which works across business units to design and release practical, scalable automation solutions. These initiatives include technology that supports WFG’s Agency division and national agent network, product development, and projects that streamline operational workflows company-wide.
“WFG’s technology program is built to address the entire lifecycle of the real estate transaction,” said Marty Frame, president of MyHome. “Ryan’s leadership in AI and automation with a venture mindset complements our broader innovation strategy, helping us accelerate the release of targeted solutions that remove friction, improve accuracy, and enhance service across our business, along with tools to assist our customer-facing officers and representatives ensure a best-in-class ‘level-one’ customer experience.”
Ozonian founded Mention Mobile in 2010 and later partnered with entrepreneur Mark Cuban to launch Dust (formerly Cyber Dust), a secure, ephemeral messaging app built to protect user privacy. His achievements earned him recognition on Forbes’ “30 Under 30” list in consumer technology in 2016. In addition his experience in blockchain technology will further assist WFG.
“What drew me to WFG is the company’s commitment to innovation with purpose,” Ozonian said. “AI and automation aren’t just buzzwords here, they’re tools we’re using to solve real problems. The culture is collaborative, customer-focused, and fast-moving, and I’m excited to help bring ideas to life that truly make a difference for our title agents and their customers.”
