THE ROAD
SO FAR
a little
about me
Hello! My name’s Cole Kennedy and I’m a designer with over ten years of professional experience. Since graduating from the Ringling College of Art + Design in 2010 I have worked in the publishing and apparel industries, most recently as the Product Development Manager for NA at Hasbro - creating assets, trend product presentations, and fashion collaborations across multiple properties.
I’m a New England native and currently working from Rhode Island while maintaining a west coast presence. Yes, I am a Patriots and Bruins fan and love a good debate about trade deadlines and salary caps. But I also enjoy discussing video games and television shows and can talk your ear off about how Wild Hunt held up, or comic book canon vs. the MCU.
I have a passion for processes and like to make things look good while furthering the crusade of creatives everywhere. If that sounds like your cup of tea and you don’t mind the occasional recap of Super Bowl LI, head over to my contact page to get in touch or download my resume and portfolio sample below for more details.
