More About Kevin
—as written by Simon
“Kevin is many things to many people. He is a dedicated, loyal friend and a creative, talented artist. He is a loving son and a supportive brother. To me, Kevin is the most incredible husband and friend. From the first time we met, I knew he was special, and being around him felt warm, comfortable, and safe.
Born and raised in Brooklyn, New York, Kevin grew up in a big family that laughs loudly and shares a lot of love and gatherings. He shares wonderful, creative stories of his childhood. He looks forward to continuing traditions from his youth and developing new ones.
Kevin’s life and career have taken him to many different places. He was the first person in his immediate family to graduate college. His early career as a performer allowed him to travel to 46 of the 50 US states and to meet people from all walks of life. Kevin has a remarkable ability to connect with people. He is genuinely interested in learning about a person’s background and journey. This curiosity makes him eager to try new things and explore new places. His passion for growing and learning motivates him to work hard and challenge himself.
Despite hardship, he is always an optimist. He works hard but still will interrupt his day to be there for a friend who needs him. He is now a writer and an executive at a global human rights nonprofit, continuing his journey to make the world a better place for everyone.
While Kevin and I have many things in common, like our values of honesty, respect, curiosity, and commitment to family and friends, some differences add excitement and opportunities to learn and grow. Kevin is a vegetarian, and he teaches me new recipes. Kevin is a talented singer, writer, and performer. He points out interesting things about movies, music, and shows. He makes many jokes (some good, some “dad jokes.”) His enthusiasm for life is contagious and inspires me to continuously learn and grow.
I know that Kevin will be able to share all his outstanding qualities as a parent. He will be committed to raising a child that will appreciate life — sharing beautiful experiences and meeting new people so we can learn about the world as a family. I look forward to parenting with Kevin because I know he will offer our family so much love, joy, and adventures”.
Kevin is always an optimist. He works hard but still will interrupt his day to be there for a friend who needs him.”
