Kevin's Remarkable Journey of Strength and Resilience
Kevin's lifelong passion for powerlifting and fitness has been nothing short of remarkable. His journey has been marked by numerous challenges, both physical and mental, yet he has persevered with unwavering determination. Kevin's path took an unexpected turn when he faced a three-year recovery from back surgery, coupled with the daunting prospect of not returning to his work at the Production Studio.
During this challenging period, Kevin experienced firsthand the depths of depression. His journey into darkness was met with courage and a commitment to healing. For two years, he worked tirelessly with counselors, psychotherapists, and mental health professionals to overcome this formidable obstacle.
This experience gave Kevin invaluable insight into the nature of depression and the path to recovery.
Today, while Kevin still occasionally grapples with feeling down, he has developed robust coping mechanisms and a deep understanding of mental health. His book, "Depression: Understanding and Overcoming," is written from the perspective of someone who has truly been there, offering authentic and compassionate guidance to others facing similar struggles.
Kevin's medical history reads like an orthopedic textbook, a testament to both his military service and his lifelong dedication to fitness. As a proud veteran who served in the USAF security forces, Kevin is officially recognized as a service-connected disabled veteran. His list of injuries and surgeries is extensive: 6 knee operations, 2 major back surgeries, 2 hip replacements, brain surgery, and brain radiation. Some of these injuries stem from his time in service, while others are the result of his intense dedication to powerlifting and his active lifestyle. But no amount of adversity could extinguish his inner fire and drive.
At the age of 62, Kevin undertook a monumental fitness journey to shed 60 pounds (ca. 27 kg), proving that age is just a number. His passion for health and fitness remained undimmed by the passing years. Through all the ups and downs, Kevin persevered with an indomitable spirit.
He now aims to share his hard-won wisdom with others who are facing adversity. Drawing from his experiences in the military, his personal health battles, and his career challenges, Kevin developed "ISO QUICK STRENGTH," a program designed to help people rebound after setbacks. He recognized that overcoming difficulties requires both physical and mental strength.
Kevin spreads his message of resilience and determination through a blog, books, and his personal mantra: "Those who quit will always fail." These simple yet powerful words encapsulate his incredible journey. After 37 remarkable years as a filmmaker, and 5 worldwide film distribution deals, Kevin now uses his gifts as a published author to share inspirational stories. His motion pictures have premiered at prestigious film festivals including Sundance, Cannes, and various European film festivals, showcasing his talent on an international stage.
With His five best-selling books in 2024, "HYSOMETRICS," "Indie Filmmaking in the REAL WORLD," "Hold the Power," "The Handshake around the World," and "The Lost Art of Logical Thinking," Kevin continues to inspire and motivate readers around the world. His diverse range of topics reflects his multifaceted experiences and wisdom gained throughout his life.
Earning the moniker "Life Warrior," Kevin stands as a shining example of the human capacity to overcome any adversity. His unwillingness to ever quit or back down, no matter the obstacles faced, is a testament to the motto he lives by: "A Life Warrior is willing to do whatever it takes to overcome life's challenges."
Kevin's journey has not been linear or easy. But through perseverance, inner strength, and an unbreakable warrior spirit forged in both military service and personal trials, he has overcome obstacles that would have defeated lesser men. Though battered and bruised, Kevin stands tall as a shining example of human potential. His story is one of courage, resilience, and the power of embracing life's challenges with an open heart.
Kevin has used visualization techniques countless times throughout his career, a skill he honed during his time in the USAF and later applied to various aspects of his life. Many of his film projects were shot in his head long before filming began. During his time in the industry, Kevin has used visualization to produce movies, TV shows, documentaries, music videos, and even as an author. Before his career in film, he was a successful powerlifter who used 'visualization' and 'positive thinking' techniques when competing. To this day, visualization remains a tool Kevin uses regularly. Kevin lives by the motto, "If you can see it, you can do it." After a remarkable 37-year career as a filmmaker and video producer, Kevin now wields the mighty pen to craft captivating stories in the form of books, drawing inspiration from his diverse life experiences, including his military service and his journey through the world of international cinema.
