Biography
Kevin grew up in Cork, where his mother and father raised him and eleven siblings with an iron fist. Kevin grew up studying Proust, Joyce and classical music, but as soon as he finished secondary school he ran off with a group of gypsies, hoping to find happiness outside of his intense and disciplined household. Kevin eventually found his way to America on a large ship called the HMS Leprechaun. Originally settling in the Southie neighborhood of Boston, Kevin was accepted to the Harvard MBA program and awarded the 'Guinness scholarship' reserved for top Irish business students.
A chance encounter with Bruno Delavigne at a nightclub landed Kevin an interview in San Francisco, leading to the position of production manager, where he has flourished. Kevin is a reassuring presence at the office and is well-liked for his good humor and funny stories, especially tales of his comic misadventures.
Kevin enjoys beer, travel and family, in that order.
