Kevin teaches American Literature and coaches lacrosse at University School, an all-boys JK–12 school in Hunting Valley, Ohio. He has also spent over a decade teaching and coaching in boarding school environments, living in dorms and working with students.

Kevin is a graduate of Phillips Academy Andover and the University of Pennsylvania, where he played Division I lacrosse and served as a captain. He holds an M.A. from the Bread Loaf School of English at Middlebury College.

After losing his younger brother Conor to suicide in 2000, Kevin began a long personal journey through grief, mindfulness, and meaning-making. That experience — combined with more than two decades in classrooms and locker rooms — now shapes everything he does as a coach, speaker, and educator.

He developed the COMPETE framework, a four-pillar mental performance system (Recognize, Reset, Lock In, Lead) designed to give coaches and athletes a repeatable process for handling pressure, failure, and high-stakes moments. COMPETE is a system to elevate performance through daily training.

Kevin speaks and coaches on mental performance, leadership, and education.
