Represented by Collective Speakers Agency:
Kam Redlawsk is an award-winning disabled industrial designer, artist, author, consultant, speaker, and advocate.
As a Korean-Japanese American adoptee born in South Korea, raised in Michigan, and thriving in Los Angeles, California, Kam's life is a rich tapestry of experiences shaped by her progressive form of muscular dystrophy, with her creativity, voice, and resilience taking center stage.
Kam is also the debut author and illustrator of the children's picture book Yumi and Monster, inspired by her rare disease and disability.
As an advocate, Kam has been a voice for the rare disease and disabled community since 2006, using art, writing, travel, and creative tools to connect us as humans. Kam's creativity and advocacy are inspired by the human condition and its fragility. She believes that vulnerability is a strength, that humans have more in common than differences, and that creativity and storytelling are important for gaining perspective and creating bridges within humanity.
Whether Kam is speaking on design at Kyoto Design University, a keynote speaker for National Scholastic Awards, sharing her insights at MIT, or showcasing her art in Washington DC as a rare disease award recipient with congressional staff, Kam's varied interests and experiences equip her to speak on a wide array of topics.
As a daydreamer and chaser of inspiration, Kam dedicates her time to creative expression, exploring the human condition, advocating for others, and globetrotting the world in her wheelchair. She embodies a dynamic yet gentle force, bringing a balanced and empathetic voice to today's divided world.
Kam is doing all of this, and she’s just begun.
*The release date for Yumi and Monster is September 2, 2025. Preorder your copy HERE or anywhere books are sold online.
