Our story
How we met
We met randomly at a Hell's Kitchen bar called Perdition in January 2010, not long after Katie had returned from a year in London to complete her Master's Degree. It was Ryan's first time there and Katie's approximately 1000th, given she lived down the street. We bonded over beers, a mutual distaste for George W. Bush and knowledge of the entire score of Les Miserables. (Heads up: our after party is at Perdition!)
The proposal
After a day that tested him to his limits (ask him about it!) Ryan proposed on our rooftop on June 1 with a video slideshow of our adventures, a bottle of champagne we had been saving for a special occasion, a dozen roses, a beautiful sunset and a stunning ring.
Our travels
We've been so lucky to be able to take many trips together over the years, including travels to London, Vermont, the Napa Valley, Sarasota, Berlin, Croatia, Barcelona, San Francisco, Boston, Chicago, Geneva, Maine, Cinque Terre, Vienna, Cape Cod, Greece, Miami, Venice, Mexico and Rome. We can't wait for more exploration in the years to come!
Our business
Three years after meeting, we decided to combine forces and transform our freelance consulting work in marketing and web development into a small business, KRP Interactive, which we both work for full-time today. Among other clients, Katie is the Director of Marketing for the independent record label Sh-K-Boom/Ghostlight Records, and has overseen the releases of over 100 Cast Albums and theater-related recordings, including The Book of Mormon and Lin-Manuel Miranda's In the Heights. Ryan has developed websites and technology solutions for over a dozen Broadway and off-Broadway shows, plus many more projects for other non-entertainment clients.
Our cat Lucy
What can we say? She came into the relationship with Katie and has cuddled her way into Ryan's heart.
Our honeymoon
We're taking off February 2017 to travel to three places we've never been: Hawaii, New Zealand and Australia. If you've been, by all means let us know where we can't miss visiting!
