He established Hakuhodo Kettle, a creative agency that plans and implements innovative new campaigns that often go beyond ordinary advertising methods in 2006. Bubbling up and serving his clients new ideas, his goal is for Hakuhodo Kettle to set the whole world aboil.
Kimura has won more than 100 awards including 8 Grand Prix and has served as a member of jury in about 20 international award shows including Titanium & Integrated Lions and Promo & Direct Jury President at Adfest.
