Kevin began his racing career in 1972 at the age of nine. He progressed from local events to regional events in his teenage years and made his first appearance at the AMA Amateur Nationals in 1982 as a Kawasaki Team Green factory assisted racer. This was the first year of the now permanent facility at Loretta Lynn’s. Following a second place finish in the highly competitive 250 expert class he returned in 1983 to win his first 2 titles in the 250 Expert and Open Expert classes aboard factory supported Yamaha YZ machines. He graduated to the professional ranks for the following 2 years with a 13th overall finish in the AMA 250 nationals in 1984 followed by a 10th place finish in the 500 nationals in 1985. He also won the prestigious AMA Pro Rookie of the Year award in 1985. 

Following the completion of his education in 1987 Kevin returned to Regional competition and then National competition in 1988. He won his 3rd and 4th Loretta Lynn titles in 1989 and 1990 in the Junior +25 classes aboard Honda CR motorcycles. He returned to the Kawasaki Team Green factory team and repeated the Junior +25 wins at the Nationals in 1991 and 1992. He returned to the nationals in 1993 where he scored his 6th and 7th titles in the Junior +25 and Senior +30 classes, 10 years after his first 2 wins. These wins led to his first Baja 1000 appearance that same year with Kawasaki Team Green and a second place finish in class 22. Title number 8 was won in 1999 in the Senior +30 class, once again aboard a Yamaha YZ. His 9th Championship was earned in the Senior +40 class in 2003, some 20 years after his first wins.

Kevin and his family currently reside in Orange, California where he is employed by Yamaha Motor Corporation as Media Relations Manager in the Motorsports Group.
