About Us
Knight Theory is a boutique brand and web design studio for businesses with something to say.
When’s the last time you’ve shopped around the internet for something specific?
Alright, let’s say you’re looking for a shirt for a date night.
→ One website you find has a great shirt, but the site’s branding feels off, the website is buggy, and you just don’t trust it, so you click away.
→ The next website shows up cohesively on their website and socials, really sells the shirt organically, pulls you in, and exudes confidence in the quality of their shirt.
You’d probably buy a shirt from the second website; right?
But then, there’s accessibility; a good design agency project can often be overly complicated, require teams of 8+ people, and take months to complete.
This is why we became Knight Theory.
Founded from a mixture of experience (and appreciation) of service and hospitality, to years of leading high-level creative marketing and design at industry giants, we package and simplify incredible brand results into concentrated sprints so we can help more businesses make more money without sacrificing quality.
Because great design doesn’t have to be slow, stuffy, or reserved for the few—it should be sharp, soulful, and ready to help you shine.
That’s why cohesive branding and digital presence is crucial for any business.
We don’t just build websites—
we build your presence.
You’ve outgrown the patchwork approach and crave a more confident digital identity, and our work is made for the founder who’s ready to be seen clearly, hired confidently, and remembered longterm.
The Knight Theory experience anchors your message, sharpens your positioning, and turns you into a confident industry leader.
Because something as rooted as having a beautiful website and brand identity can make you more unstoppable than you think.

Kyler Thompson
Creative Director, Designer, and Founder of Knight Theory
Many years before I was building brands, I was building trust in the service industry myself—across restaurant floors, bar tops, open houses, and client calls. I learned what worked, and how to listen, anticipate, and serve. That hospitality-first mindset has shaped my every creative endeavor.
Professionally, I’ve spent years crafting stories behind the scenes. First as a copywriter for agencies and founders, a UX/UI and web designer, and then as a content marketing manager and brand strategist for B2B companies, startups, and household tech giants like AWS.
No matter the industry, one truth kept popping up: the strongest brands are the ones that know who they are, and have the courage to evolve.
Ding ding—Knight Theory is where it all comes together!
Named after my late mother (the original visionary in my life) and surprisingly not after a love of chess, this studio is a tribute to her contagious passion for forging your own path. It’s built for businesses who care deeply about how they show up, and who deserve access to quality design without large-agency craziness.
My role is simple: I help you see it all clearly, then we bring it to life—fast, intentionally, and with a few laughs along the way.
P.S. The studio having the same initials as my own name is a happy, convenient coincidence!
Working with Knight Theory is meticulously designed to feel refreshingly seamless from start to finish, because design should come with clear communication, thoughtful guidance, and little guesswork.
From your personalized project portal loaded with resources and live messaging, to structured sprint timelines and smooth approvals, every part of the process is built to keep you informed, empowered, and excited.
