Originally from Providence, Rhode Island, Kulik began her career working as a textile designer for Longina Phillips Design Studio in Sydney, Austrailia. Relocating to New York in 2003, Kulik joined the design team at ES Originals. She spent two years with the mass-market shoe manufacturer conceptualizing a wide range of kicks for corporate accounts such as Target, Rampage, and OshKosh. Kulik went on to Playboy Enterprises where she worked as a product designer developing their accessories and menswear lines as well as managing brand control with the company's global licensees.

Kulik now brings that unique perspective to clients including Bumble and Bumble, Elizabeth Arden, Marc Ecko, MTV and Panasonic through her design and trend forcasting studio, Pixel Rumor located in New York's East Village.

Kulik is also founder and editor of Pattern Pulp, a web Forum devoted to print and pattern design.
