Kim Oliphant Senior Art Director / Account Management

You don’t spend more than 30 years in the advertising industry and not dabble in a little bit of everything. Graphic designer, traffic manager, account executive, and general “top dog” in the agency, Kim has done it all. It’s no wonder we’re always asking her to do even more. When you find good people to work for you, you do everything you can to never let them go. Kim must be pretty good because she’s worked with Aqua President, Dave Di Maggio, since moving to Florida from Chicago in 2001. As a graphic designer, Kim produces exceptionally stylish pieces of work you’d expect from someone with her impressive background. Oh, and her genuine relationships with clients would make even the most schmoozy of account execs jealous. Kim enjoys reading, watching TV and movies, and adopting one-too-many golden retrievers.
