In 2001 Keryn founded KMR Media Communication, an award winning design company with local, national and international clients based in Cornwall. Keryn designed the brand identity and online communications for the Caribbean Tourist Organisation’s having successfully delivered a pitch in Miami. The project was worth in excess of £250,000.

The new brand identity and online communications were launched at the International Tourist Organisations Annual Meeting in Barbados 18 months later.
