This week’s guest is Jennifer Kinon. Kinon founded Champions Design with Bobby C. Martin, Jr in 2010. Today, Kinon leads business, design, and strategy at Champions. For more than a decade, the firm has crafted meaningful brand strategy and visual identity systems for some of the world’s best brands. At every point in her career, Kinon has tackled big systems. She served as design director of Hillary for America in 2016, design director of New York City’s 2012 Olympic Bid, and worked in Pentagram’s New York City office with Michael Bierut. In this conversation, host Nicola Hamilton and Kinon start with the early parts of her career and make their way through the ups and downs she’s experienced as a designer and as a business owner.
