Kyle Denman is a fashion designer and artist based in Los Angeles, California. Before entering the creative space, Kyle studied political science with a focus on nonprofit policy. Having always loved art as a child, he craved creative expression and freedom. In 2016, he moved to Los Angeles to pursue fashion design and has grown a client list to include names like Beyonce and Georgina Pazcoguin. He has received accolades for his work, including being recognized as the 2021 International Fashion Designer of the Year and being named on the inaugural Forbes 30 Under 30 Los Angeles list. For years, Kyle has taught design and art to youth from underserved communities.

Through the lenses of art and design, Kyle teaches social-emotional skills and the importance of vulnerability and creative expression. Kyle also currently serves as the Executive Director of the social impact arts organization, Arts Bridging the Gap.

The San Gabriel Valley Symphony, a program of Arts Bridging The Gap, exists to educate and inspire new audiences through the performing arts.
