Hi! I’m Kevin.

The Short Version:
I’m a senior learning & development professional and am looking for my next full-time role. I have almost two decades of experience in the fields of instructional design, training delivery, technical writing, and copy editing. Take a look at my CV, and if you have a potential role for me, get in touch!

I live in Amsterdam and have Dutch and American citizenship. I’m also a highly skilled voice actor, comedian, and host.

  • Everyone, from a barista to an astronaut, needs to learn how to do their job well. As an instructional designer, I define learning objectives and then design compelling activities to meet them. As a trainer, I deliver training content with energy and humour and improvise new activities as needed to ensure the training goals are met.

  • I’m talented at the art/science of converting complex subjects into clear and concise documentation, whether it’s a product manual or a knowledge base article.

    I’m also a native-English copy editor who has a trick the AI tools haven’t mastered: dramatically reducing word count while preserving (or, more often, improving) writing quality.

  • Running parallel to my technical career is my performance career. I’ve taught and performed improv comedy around the world, and I’ve hosted everything from online corporate videos to my monthly show at Boom Chicago. I’m also a talented voice actor! Hire me to read your books.
