Kenn is an award-winning children’s designer claiming an IDSA/IDEA Gold Award, Business Week Product of the Year Award and contributed to others through working with an amazing design and marketing teams during the years when Fisher-Price was at the top of their game! Kenn spent just short of 6 years in Asia creating a multi-functional toy and packaging design team with focus on Design for Manufacturing and Automation for the Global Marketplace. Kenn and his Asian Team was awarded the first every “Global Citizenship Award” by Mattel in 2016 for the initiative he created in Collaboration with Save the Children and the Indonesia Ministry of Education. “The greatest part of my career was learning about real needs and being on the ground with those that give everything they can, not with their pockets, but with their hearts. It is an incredibly humbling experience and has changed my life and given me perspective through the eyes of children in need.”
Tyler has been working as an inventor at KidKenn for the last 8 years. He helped design and manufacture all of the models for KidKenn from their very first game, Foosketball, and to their most current game, Pongdemonium. He is known for having the best play models, so you can have confidence that when he creates a model for a game, it will translate well into production. Tyler has always had a love for tabletop gaming and has played them his whole life. His love for games has given him the knowledge on the many mechanics of gameplay and it has translated well into his ability to apply them to new games and even create unique and never before seen mechanics in games. Recently his model making, and creativity, led him to be nominated by Mojo Nation for the Rising Star award for the Play Creators Awards in 2026. When Tyler is not designing games and making models, he enjoys spending time with his wife Stephanie, and playing hockey.
