Entercom has announced a pair of leadership promotions at Rock KISW/Seattle. Ryan Castle has been promoted to Brand Manager of the station and Taryn Daly has been elevated to Assistant Brand Manager of the station. Both moves are effective immediately.
“I am extremely proud to elevate these two tremendous leaders who have already contributed much success to KISW and reward their hard work and dedication,” said Jack Hutchison, Entercom-Seattle SVP. “I have full trust in Ryan and Taryn’s ability to lead this iconic brand celebrating in its 50th year in Seattle and beyond.”
“I’d like to thank Dave [Richards], Jack and Pat [Paxton] for entrusting me with this legendary brand,” said Castle. “This radio station and this staff mean the absolute world to me and I’m stoked for the opportunity to continue the legacy of the Northwest’s most entertaining radio station.”
Castle had previously served as the station’s Assistant Brand Manager since joining Entercom in October 2003. In addition to this role, Castle will continue as Brand Manager for Classic Rock 92.3 KGON/Portland.
“Joining this team eight years ago was an absolute dream come true, and that dream continues with the incredible honor of growing my career at this legendary radio station,” said Daly.
