Who We Are

Strokes of Genius II was founded by two women in an industry dominated by men, making both Kimberlee and Melissa’s story even more astonishing. We didn’t get there overnight, though.

We started the company and had little success in the early years. Through perseverance and sometimes sheer stubbornness, we pushed on. There was a time when we used credit cards just to keep the company afloat. Things changed when we landed several residential accounts in Manhattan. Soon thereafter, we were able stabilize and move forward with consistent work. For a company that was running by maxing out credit cards, it is an amazing step forward.
