Kyra Yamamoto
My journey began in the Pacific Northwest, where I was raised in between the beautiful countryside of Washington and Montana. Surrounded by nature’s inspiration, I initially pursued a career in health, spending countless hours memorizing every bone in the body at school. Alongside my studies, I taught yoga and volunteered as an art teacher for middle school special needs students, each experience deepening my connection to people and purpose.
I started my professional path in health and wellness but discovered my passion for creativity through managing digital communities. Working directly with clients to build their first online audiences taught me the power of connection and experience. I was inspired to expand my skills, teaching myself photography, website development, and social media strategy, and soon managed global accounts across Instagram, YouTube, and Facebook in industries from tech and CPG to health, wellness, and cannabis. My early experiences, even building a website for a major music festival, showed me the importance of combining community, strategy, and creative vision to bring brands to life.
With a unique background that blends marketing and communications expertise with deep roots in tech, food, and startup culture, I bring a fresh, holistic approach to brand-building. I believe in creating experiences that resonate on a deep level and foster true loyalty. My creative approach is grounded in adaptability and storytelling, helping brands reach their full potential by making an impact that lasts.
Now, based in Manhattan, I’m expanding my creative career into fields I love—fashion, tech, luxury hospitality, and the arts—where I can continue blending vision and community to shape unforgettable brand experiences.
