Kinetic has since garnered over 500 International and Local Awards. She always believes in giving her best and never compromising on the fundamental principles that guide a company. It is with this belief that she has won over clients with her passion and tenacity. Although Kinetic is a fully local design practice, it beats the common belief that home grown agencies cannot handle established global brands. Kinetic has handled international brands such as Nike, Nokia, and Levis. Locally, their clients include Mini, 100Plus, and Keppel Land.What sets Kinetic apart from other agencies is the culture that Carolyn believes in. “It’s never all about the clients and the money you take home. It’s the journey that the people in Kinetic go through together that makes all the difference.” For this reason, Carolyn started the tradition for Kinetic to be closed for business once a year, for the company to go on an all-expense-paid trip. They’ve since travelled to Los Angeles, Tokyo, Sydney, Maldives, Budapest, and more.Carolyn’s success with Kinetic has taken them on a winning streak on both the business and creative front.
