WHO I AM
Hey there! My name is Kim.
I am a graphic designer based in Calgary, Alberta, with a Bachelor
in Design, major in Graphic Design, from Alberta University of the Arts.
Kirby Media is named after one of my wonderful doggos from years past. As both a dog lover and a multi-faceted creator, I decided the name was fitting! I spend my free time writing (and am probably a little too obsessed with fictional characters).
I create simple, attractive, clean designs. I love color, I love creativity,
I love being a geek.

I LOVE SIMPLE DESIGN
Clean lines, punchy accents, with
a clear message to come together
in something shiny.
I LOVE COLOR
Bright highlights, monochromatic compositions, retro vibes, and
the perfect dash of black & white.
I LOVE WORDS
I have a typography addiction, I love writing, and design is the best way
to combine these passions.
I create stories.
