Our Mission
You know your business and purpose. Yet the struggle to thrive can be overwhelming, leading to an online presence that's off-brand, haphazard, and fails to convert.
Our mission is to thoughtfully share the true essence of your business with authenticity and heart, so your online presence feels deeply you while building brand loyalty, engagement, and growth.

Why we started Kindred
Kindred started because we saw talented designers, makers, and creatives whose online presence didn't match the quality of their work. Their social media and digital marketing felt like an afterthought, squeezed between everything else running a business takes.
We wanted to build something different — an agency that felt less like a vendor and more like an extension of the team, people who actually understood the vision, and cared enough to protect it. That's the kind of relationship we set out to build with every client: stress-free, deeply collaborative, and built around who you actually are.
The people behind your content
Karissa Widder
Before founding Kindred, Karissa spent a several years at an agency, where she saw firsthand how much a brand's presence could grow when someone actually understood their world. That's the standard she's built Kindred around. Today she stays close as an advisor, while Jim & Alexander lead the day-to-day.
Alexander Dion
Sets the direction for where Kindred is headed and how each new client gets there. Alexander has the mind of a system-builder. He's the one refining how the agency operates behind the scenes so that what clients experience always feels effortless. He's most energized by figuring out what a brand actually needs, not what's easy to sell them.
Jim Dion
Keeps the gears turning behind the scenes managing contracts & invoicing. Jim is the operational backbone that enables the rest of the team to focus fully on client work instead of admin. Jim's the reason things run on time and on budget so that no one internally or on the client side ever has to think about it.
Faith Gowdy
A true leader who keeps everything moving smoothly and gracefully. Faith oversees strategy across our clients, making sure the content we create supports each brand's unique goals and direction, and loves diving deep to understand each client's tone of voice so the work always feels authentic to them.
Eva Casas
Manages several client accounts alongside design projects spanning branding, websites, and packaging. Eva loves partnering with talented, passionate business owners and helping them build a digital presence that feels just as intentional, beautiful, and impactful as the work they perform every day.
Emily Moreno
Lights up when a client comes to the table with a fresh, unique vision for their brand. Emily loves bringing those ideas to life, whether through social media, email marketing, or a website refresh that finally reflects who they are.
Rebecca Lopez
Handles social media management and strategy with an eye for storytelling. Rebecca's favorite part of the job is working with clients to create fun graphics and visual content that bring their brand stories to life, and she especially loves editing Reels.
Emma Stiffler
Always on the lookout for brands with a story worth telling, Emma loves learning what each business needs and where it wants to go. A natural connector, she welcomes future clients to Kindred, from the very first message to the first conversation.
