About Kindred
An independent communications consultancy built on experience, relationships and a belief in the power of story.
DANA O’MALLEY · FOUNDER & CEO
Dana O’Malley founded Kindred in 2020 to work closely with the people building distinctive brands. She leads the consultancy’s work across travel, hospitality, wellness, health and sustainability, staying involved from the first strategic conversations through delivery.
Her earlier experience includes serving as Marketing and Communications Manager at VisitBritain in New York from 2013 to 2016. That background informs a perspective on how destinations and experiences are introduced to an audience, and how a clear story supports the wider business.
Today, Dana works with founders, leadership teams and marketing directors as they prepare for openings, develop their positioning and navigate moments of growth or change.
