About
kevin
I was born in Milan in 1991 from a multicultural family. my dad was from Trieste, in the north east of Italy and my mum is from Germany, Liberia and Sweden. this mixed background gifted me a very open mind and a passionate interest in everything that is different.
ever since I was a child creativity has been my forte and my means of expressing it have been ever evolving. at first through my first big love, music. I moved to London to study a bachelor in audio production at SAE.
to support studies, I started to work as a part time bartender at Paradise Row, near Bethal Green station. I had to learn fast and I was quickly overwhelmed by the job. within the first year I started becoming very passionate about the job. the seed was planted in me. I made the sudden decision to drop out of my dream college to focus on this new path and haven’t looked back since.
