Charleston Women Podcast

Kim Russo, host of the Charleston Women Podcast.

Kim Russo is a best selling author, branding expert, and creative force behind On Brand Designs, a boutique agency empowering female entrepreneurs to elevate their businesses through high impact, intuitive branding. With over 20 years of experience in the design and print industry, including work with top firms in New York City, Kim’s signature blend of strategic vision and artistic instinct has earned her a reputation as a go-to expert for women ready to level up their brands.

Her work has been recognized on a national scale, including a feature on the iconic Nasdaq billboard in Times Square, a testament to her dedication, innovation, and influence in the world of entrepreneurship.

Beyond her agency, Kim is also the artist behind A Spot of Paint by Kim, where she creates custom pet portraits, many of which are generously donated to nonprofit silent auctions, combining her love of animals, art, and giving back.

When she's not designing, painting, or mentoring entrepreneurs, you’ll find Kim enjoying life in Charleston, relaxing on a boat or the beach, or spending cherished time with her family and friends. Her passion for creativity and community shines through everything she does.
