Kenneth W. Davis, born in Baton Rouge, shaped his early vision at LSU with a degree in Liberal Arts and a minor in Photography. His path carried him to Parsons in New York, where design became his true language. Three years at Reliable Design immersed him in the world of major entertainment clients, sharpening his eye for detail and his wit for humor. From there, he rose as Senior Graphic Artist for David Letterman’s Late Show, before founding Devious Design and the award‑winning High Tides Magazine.
Life’s second chapter unfolded through recovery and renewal. With 19 years of sobriety, Kenneth trained at Hazelden, counseling those facing dual diagnoses and weaving art into therapy.
In 2010 he married Mandy Margol, his partner in both life and work. Together they built Sweet Emotions Counseling in Arkansas, a practice that thrived for 13 years as a sanctuary of healing. In 2021, they returned to Key West—the place of their vows—to embrace a quieter rhythm, a loyal dog at their side, and a life steeped in art, love, and joy.
