About me

I am an artist, illustrator and comms expert specialising in storytelling through digital and traditional channels.

I am an award-winning communications and omni-channel global brand and marketing expert and entrepreneur. I have a strong background in strategic communications, community building, branding, marketing, PR, visual and graphic design, art and illustration across retail, luxury, travel, health, tech and sustainability markets. I am a recognised leader in digital transformation, community engagement and empowerment and have launched start ups, agencies and small businesses.
I am a visual storyteller, using tools like video, Adobe Creative Suite and traditional fine art methods to engage and inspire audiences to act. Whether it is related to climate action, retail, academia or regulatory affairs, my work moves people to take action. I have both the strategic experience and tactical skills to efficiently and effectively get the job done.

In my spare time, I mentor female small owned businesses (SME) and young people at UprisingUK and Our Bright Future. I provide entrepreneurship training and mentorship to SMEs and lecture at Royal Holloway's MSc in Entrepreneurship.

Here are some nice things people say about me and my product-based work:

"I recently purchased one of Kathy's exquisite silk scarves. The level of detail in this piece along with its vibrancy is just exceptional. You can feel the care and artistry in every inch. It elevates even the simplest outfit. This scarf isn't just an accessory, it's a statement, a story, and a testament to the beauty of Kathy's art drawn from her life's experiences."

"I just received the exquisite smaller scarf square - another amazing creation of Kathy's. She pours her heart and soul into each piece and personalises as requested! Truly a talent not to be ignored!"

"This is such a beautifully thought out, exquisitely crafted piece. I love it so much. Everything from the design process to receiving the beautifully packaged finished article was just perfect. Thank you KK ! It's a one off that will be a treasured part of my wardrobe forever."

"Received the beautifully packaged box with the absolutely lovely t-shirt you painted for me. Love it and love you!"

"I love all of the details and the beautiful uniqueness of my scarf. It's just perfect and the consultation process was so fun!"

"The art is unique and stunning, I've not seen anything else like it."

"The art and concept behind it is unique and it's not just the product that appeals, but the artist behind the brand really makes everything come to life."

Here are some nice things clients say about working with me in general:
"Kathy Kyle worked as the Dorking Town Partnership BID (Business Improvement District) Manager for an 18-month term, under a subcontracted agreement, during 2023 & 2024. Throughout this time, she was courteous, conscientious, enthusiastic, approachable, and exceptionally professional in every aspect of the varied job role. Kathy's management skills and creativity were exemplary, and her dynamic approach meant that all events and undertakings were run to an exceptional standard. Although her job role focus was to provide prosperity and promotion to the 320-plus BID levy members, by also encouraging and involving volunteer organisations and collaborative partners she most certainly put Dorking on the map making the town a desirable destination for both visitors and business alike. We cannot speak highly enough of her work ethic and ability to achieve and know that she can fully accomplish anything she undertakes in the future."

"It has been a real joy to work with Digikind. Their energy and enthusiasm is infectious and this is underpinned by a creative approach and a commitment to delivering a great result and adding value."

"The ability to really understand your business is what sets Kathy apart. She has a high level of business EQ which then informs the work she does. She is great to work with as well. Responsive, unafraid to challenge positively and put simply she wants to do what's best for you. Working with Kathy helped drive our success as a business. Not only did she listen and understand our needs but helped drive and deliver solutions."

"Working with Kathy has been great. She has provided fantastic mentoring support to one of our comms team and designed, launched and driven forwards our brand ambassador campaign. It's been such a positive experience and has provided incredible support to the team just where we needed it."

"Among communications professionals, Kathy has the rare combination of sparkling creative skill and organised, disciplined management."
