Coach Kevin, originally from Vancouver, Canada, brings a wealth of experience both in and out of the pool. Coach Kevin swam collegiately at the University of Calgary. Although his initial career path led him towards research, where he explored motor control and muscle physiology in various clinical populations, Kevin’s passion for sports and coaching eventually became his focus. Notably, he co-authored a chapter in Sociocultural Examinations of Sports Concussions during this time.

Coach Kevin developed coaching experiences with an internship at the Canadian Sport Institute in Calgary and continued abroad at the University of South Australia, where he used GPS load monitoring to make informed decisions about training. Kevin then relocated to Los Angeles to pursue a Master's of Sport Science at Long Beach, where his thesis examined heart rate variability in relation to specific breathing techniques. While completing his degree, he interned at UCLA in Athletic Performance  and worked alongside strength and conditioning coaches to implement training programs and monitor performance metrics such as force plates, Velocity Based Training (VBT), and heart monitors with the swim and dive TEAMs. He also served as Assistant Coach for the National Group at Rose Bowl Aquatics.

Kevin's most recent position was at Bellevue Club Swim TEAM, where he played a key role in developing the TEAM into a top-30 age group program. He also helped swimmers reach national and international standards. Coach Kevin is excited to bring his diverse experiences and passion for the sport to inspire others, focusing on the lessons swimming offers and the value of TEAMwork in achieving collective goals.
