Help Kevin make a difference
Kevin needs your help to continue his journey of conservation through traveling education!
Due to the continued growth of his Facebook group and his passion for conservation and education, Kevin recently left his full time job and is taking All Bugs Go to Kevin on the road. His aim is to pursue environmental conservation through meaningful experiences that give people a personal connection to these animals that are largely hated by humans but also important to the health of our planet. He is one of the biggest bug advocates in the world, and we need bugs as much as they need Kevin.
Spending more than 12 years in pest management, Kevin learned the ins and outs of the industry, became a leader in the field, but also realized that almost all "bugs" were NOT pests. Additionally, he learned that what makes these animals pests is typically more situational and they still added a huge benefit to the environment. So, he made an important part of his job educating customers on how their "pest" benefits nature.
Kevin's lifelong passion for photography had been sitting on the back burner for years when it was reignited by a photo of an ant taken with a macro lens attachment for his cellphone. After 5 years of cellphone photography, he purchased his first digital camera, and soon after started All Bugs Go To Kevin. As the group grew, so did his desire to educate on a much larger scale through online content, in-person programs and events, podcasts, publications, or anywhere else he was invited or saw a need.
Through the success of All Bugs Go to Kevin and the knowledge gained from experts who have mentored him, Kevin has been introduced to a wealth of experiences that have allowed him grow as an educator and photographer. His list of accomplishments include a long list of photo publications, professional speaking engagements, educational programs with live animals, and contributing to science by leading or assisting with biological surveys.
If you think all he does is a lot, you might be surprised to know that up until now, Kevin has refused compensation for programs just for the opportunity to educate the masses. Now that Kevin has embarked on a journey to educate on a national and hopefully international level, those times are gone and the planet needs HIS help, which means Kevin needs ours.
