Kasey Kitchen | Founder/CEO
Born in Miami, and raised in Atlanta, Kitchen spent most of her youth training in a dance studio. Her love of performing carried her to further study her craft at East Carolina University, and then onward to London’s Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, before settling in New York City in 2005. In 2007, M.S.A (a leading dance agency) held an open call for talent as it had just opened its NYC branch. Kitchen was one of twelve individuals who was signed.
Despite a short professional career, Kitchen performed at The Kennedy Center in Washington D.C., as well as in various plays, indie films, and Off-Broadway productions. In 2009, she relocated to Los Angeles to further pursue opportunities in film and TV. A year later she decided to change course.
Kitchen had always been fascinated with the scientific analysis of human conduct, and possessed a particular skill for behavioral profiling. In 2010, a referral from a retired FBI agent and a subsequent call from a recruiter set the wheels in motion for a career with the bureau. Almost. Despite the excitement of a new journey ahead something still didn’t feel quite right. Her strong desire to help people remained, yet her undeniable pull to the creative arts couldn’t be ignored. With that, she traded Quantico for the bright lights of Hollywood and once again returned to entertainment-- this time as a publicist.
Prior to founding MARQUE PR, Kitchen served as a Senior Account Executive at five different leading public relations agencies in Los Angeles, where she spearheaded campaigns for a myriad of talent across the realms of film and television. With forward thinking and the curation of creative narratives, Kitchen has achieved great success for her clients in the acquisition of press spanning print and digital publications, radio, and broadcast interviews, and has furthered that success into the space of branding. Kitchen transcends traditional PR by implementing an artistic strategy that is uniquely catered to each individual client; furthering their craft as artists while also maintaining longevity and relevancy in their careers—traits that are most vital in today’s vastly changing industry.
Kitchen additionally spearheads publicity for The Cameron Boyce Foundation and sits upon its board of directors. She is based in Los Angeles, CA.
