Kevin was born and raised in the Bay Area in California. After school he moved to Lake Tahoe, and found his love of skiing. He went to work for Kirkwood Resort Company and quickly moved through the ranks. While there, he learned mechanics by working closely with ski lifts. This is when his love of Toyotas flourished. He bought his 4-Runner and immediatly started modifying everything on it. After Kirkwood he went to work for a Roller Coaster company as a welder, then moved into final assembly and field work. When it was time to move on, he went to work making tooling for a car rack manufacturer. Finally settling down at an amusement park on the central coast with his wife Rheanna and a little girl Bailey. His hobbies include fabricating, fishing, wheeling, rock climbing, and camping.
