Ryan new VP in WashTrust wealth management division

WESTERLY – Washington Trust Co. last week announced the hiring of lawyer Kathleen A. Ryan, who will join bank’s wealth management division in December.
Ryan was hired from the Providence law firm Partridge Snow & Hahn LLP, where she was partner and chair of the Trusts and Estates group. She’s joining the wealth management team as a senior vice president and will oversee the trust and estate services to provide fiduciary services, including wealth transfer planning, charitable giving and business succession planning, according to a press release.
“Kathi comes to Washington Trust with more than 25 years of experience as a strategic and focused attorney,” said Mark K. W. Gim, senior executive vice president, wealth management, and treasurer at Washington Trust.
“Kathi’s dedication to excellent client service fits perfectly with Washington Trust’s corporate priorities. In addition, her responsibilities for practice management, work allocation, business development, and strategic planning and implementation are outstanding qualifications for her senior leadership role within Washington Trust Wealth Management,” he added.
The bank also notes that while Ryan worked with Partridge Snow & Hahn she co-founded and led Women AdVocates for Enterprise, or WAVE, which is dedicated to “helping women advance professionally in the marketplace.”
