Wright has over 15 years of experience in senior executive marketing positions in both SMB and enterprise settings. In this role, Wright will be responsible for all of OnRamp’s demand generation, market positioning, product marketing, and branding.
“Kirk possesses significant experience in successfully defining and driving the market direction for accomplished technology brands,” stated Chief Executive Officer, Lucas Braun. “As Vice President of Marketing, Kirk will help elevate our brand, drive awareness, and position the company for future success with the anticipated release of several new solutions aimed at addressing business’ needs for secure and compliant hosting solutions.”
Wright most recently served as Vice President of Marketing and Client Services at Saffire®, an award-winning SaaS provider aimed at helping events, venues, and destinations build self-managed, interactive websites that include the integrated SaffireTix™ ticketing platform.
