About Me

Jim Kulakowski

Multimedia Producer, Designer

I was born in Syracuse, NY in 1983 and discovered my love for design early on, fueled by countless hours sketching flipbooks, headshots of my favorite musicians, and the imaginative worlds of Marvel, DC Comics, The Far Side, and Calvin and Hobbes. That early passion for art and storytelling grew into a career that has taken me from sketching to leading major creative projects.

As a creative professional, I’ve had the honor of shaping campaigns for industry giants like Microsoft and Amtrak, among many others. My creative work has earned numerous accolades like a NY Emmy® Award and NYCA Best Sound Award, showcasing my ability to blend imagination and strategy into award-winning solutions. Whether crafting digital experiences or building visual narratives, my work is rooted in a lifelong love of creativity and an obsession with detail.
