Kevin is Director of Product Engineering at NodeSource. Previously, he was a ten-year veteran at Adobe and was one of the original engineering leaders for Creative Cloud. His team built the very first service offering, Creative Cloud Assets (https://assets.adobe.com). Prior to Adobe, Kevin has held leadership roles at multiple software companies and digital agencies where he helped shape the engineering culture by improving development and delivery practices and encouraged cross-functional teams. While currently residing in Seattle, Kevin is a lifelong New Yorker with dreams of relocating to a sunny island in the Caribbean. When he's not helping teams build great products, Kevin can be found either spending time with his family or at the gym trying to stay (get) in shape.
You are (or want to be) a manager at a tech company. Ideas you present are ignored while the same ideas, when presented by others, are accepted. You deliver on difficult projects time and again, yet deserved promotions and recognition seem to elude you. You build strong teams of talented individuals that other teams want for themselves. Still, you can't get a seat at the decision makers' table. Congratulations! You're managing while black.
