Kevin has always loved creating unique experiences in interesting environments, from crafting strange site-specific installations in art school to spending years putting on DIY concerts in offbeat venues. When he played his first escape room, he knew that a company like Secret City was the perfect place to blend his childhood love of puzzles and mystery with a passion for immersive world-building and storytelling.

Kaitlyn has always been drawn to creativity, inspired by hands-on adventures around the GTA. By age ten, she dreamed of telling stories through video games. That passion led her to an Honours Bachelor's in Experiential Design at Sheridan, focusing on immersive storytelling. In her free time, she explores painting, glasswork, clay, sewing, and digital art—and she’s always up for a round of Mario Party or sharing skincare tips.
