In her role as Marketing Manager, Ryan West is the conductor of our Paperkite orchestra, guiding the different pieces of campaigns to completion. It’s fitting, then, that her background is filled with performing arts management experience, including a previous role at Munson-Williams-Proctor Arts Institute in Utica. Joining Paperkite in December 2019, Ryan makes sure we’re hitting all the right notes, working with each member of our team.

“I can say I enjoy working with every single person and it constantly amazes me the sheer amount and beauty of the work Paperkite creates together.”

So let’s get to know Ryan better, in her own words:

Favorite place to travel?

Hands down, Ireland. We’ll be living there in our retirement, you’ll see 🙂

Favorite place in Cooperstown?

Mel’s holds a special place in my heart. That’s where I had my first date with my fiancé, and where in the very beginning of Covid we ordered a picnic lunch to enjoy lakeside at Lakefront Park and he proposed. Plus The Kingfisher is hands down my favorite local drink!

What is the best piece of advice you’ve ever received?

You catch more flies with honey. It’s an oldie but being kind, listening, giving the attention that a person or situation needs will help make more progress and solutions than pushing back and being confrontational.

Ryan is keeping her eye on all of the new and exciting platforms that are transforming digital marketing, with a keen interest in TikTok. Contact Paperkite today to see how our team can bolster your presence in the digital marketplace!
