Pink Chucks for Gag City.

When Nicki Minaj fans built "Gag City," an AI-generated pink universe, into a viral cultural moment, I led Converse's engagement by declaring Pink Chucks the official footwear of Gag City. Covered in Forbes alongside Spotify and Chips Ahoy as one of the brands that got the moment right.

What people have said.

I am forever grateful that Kimberlee-Mykel found a home at M Creative, albeit for a short time. She made our work better, smarter, more collaborative, and just plain fun.

Mary Jamis
Former President & Owner, M Creative

Kimberlee-Mykel is a rare talent, one who combines vision, strategy, and heart in everything she does. She's the kind of future leader this industry not only needs but will be lucky to have.

Jodi Sittig
Chief Marketing Officer, Evelyn & Bobbie

When I think about the ideal version of someone new joining the company, so much of Kimberlee-Mykel's first 9 months at Converse exceeds even what I would have hoped for.
