About

Kevin is a graduating senior from Lenior-Rhyne University with degrees in Marketing and Entrepreneurship. He has varied work experience, doing everything from stocking shelves in a grocery store, to sales and freelance photography. Kevin believes his experience, both in the classroom and in real life, and his love of anything mechanical will be enough to propel his business concept, FiveUp Motorcycle Rentals, to the front of this competition and ultimately excel when put into practice.

No matter what, Kevin loves and will continue to love exploring his home state of NC, whether that’s adventuring on his motorcycle, chasing native brook trout in our streams or framing some mix of it all behind the lens of his camera. He is usually joined by his family or his friends, and he loves to share the beauty of this state we all call home with anyone who will listen.
