Kyle Kesterson
I come from a variety of creative backgrounds, but am focused primarily in Illustration, Design and Branding. I am currently the Co-Founder of Giant Thinkwell.
Previously, I worked at Übermind, designing on iPad, iPhone and Android platforms, was a Toy Developer at a bobblehead and electronics company called Funko working with large licenses such as Lucas, Hasbro, Star Trek, Simpsons, South Park, Warner Bros, Sega, and many more. At Funko I created a unique line of toys called Nodniks from the conceptual stages to the shelves.
I’ve also split up my previous years slaving away as a sign designer/fabricator, learning how to effectively grab people's attention and effectively articulate a message within a matter of seconds. I have a major passion for collaborating with like-minded and equally passionate individuals of whose work and tenacity I admire. I've been told by those closest to me that I'm crazy enough to think I can change the world, three projects at a time.
I am a member of TheRoot 42 (a decade old creative collective), The Society of Champions (select collective of creative young people), TechStars and am an Organizer for Startup Weekend.
