Joseph Kavanagh, or as he's known to his friends, Joe, has always had a passion for creativity and innovation. From a young age, he enjoyed painting, drawing, and figuring out how things worked in the real world. Though he didn't always know where he fit in professionally, Joe eventually found his calling as the founder of an innovation agency. 

Over the years, Joe has had the honor of working with some of the biggest names in the industry, including Mattel, Nestlé, Disney, and Red Bull. Some of his career highlights include being the brand manager for the first set of Harry Potter action figures, building a brain-wave-controlled video game for Red Bull, and building the new Squishmallows website for Jazwares. Joe is quick to point out that he didn't accomplish these feats alone – he had a talented team of "Clonkeys" (as he calls them) working alongside him.

Now, Joe is embarking on a new creative venture – writing and publishing a children's book. He believes that more than ever, children need to be taught how to work together, appreciate their different skill sets, and bring their big imaginations to life. To that end, he's teamed up with the talented illustrator Caitlin Craig to create a book that celebrates the power of imagination, hard work, and collaboration for creativity. 

Joe's educational background includes a degree in psychology from Boston College and an MBA from the University of Southern California. He's hoping this book will be the first in a series that explores the ins and outs of creativity and innovation.In addition to his professional accomplishments, Joe is grateful for the support of his family and friends, including Jessica Moon, Pyung Kim, John Marcoux, David Griffith-Jones, Simonne Jones, Zoe Chance, Zoe Rose, and his entire family, all of whom have played a role in his creative journey.
