Bio
Stephane Munier
What I like with Kenny is the combination of listening and making sense. You can feel it from the very beginning of your brief. Kenny wants to absorb it all, trying to uncover all aspects of the challenge whether it is clearly mentioned or just suggested. Kenny is agile and smart to collaborate with you and he always proceeds to deliver something right for you. Working with Kenny is a good experience too because he manages to keep his word and stick to his commitments. Kenny will never let you down. Each project I have been working with Kenny turned into a positive achievement because of his insightful and creative approach.
Martin Canellakis
There are a few decisions you make in launching a business that are pivotal. One of the most crucial to the success of Farm to Table Foods was hiring Kenny. He did much more than create our logo, brand identity materials, packaging, trade show presence etc. he helped define who the company is today and what it stands for. It would be an understatement to say that without his insight, talent, good nature and relentless dedication, we wouldn't be where we are today.

Joined McGarryBowen’s design team working with Creative Director, Don Zinzell. Working on branding projects for clients including the United States Olympic Committee, Marriotts Hotels and Resorts, Reebok, Kraft, JP Morgan, Verizon and Disney etc. • Lead and won the pitch on re-branding US Olympic team logo. Although the executives of the USOC decided to stop rolling out the re-brand last minute before the 2008 Beijing Olympic. It was certainly an honor to have involved and be so close to designing for our beloved U.S. team.
