Graduated in 2015 with majors in Jazz Composition and Film Scoring. Principal instrument: piano.

Position: Founder/CEO of Point Motion, which uses motion capture and AI technology to turn body movement into music. They work in the healthcare space with disabled people, such as those who suffer from Parkinson’s disease. Kevin spends most of his very long workdays meeting with investors and customers.

Overview: While at Berklee a cousin suffered a spinal injury and was in physical therapy. Kevin realized that there was no music there and the best thing he could do with music was to bring it where it wasn’t. By the time he had finished Berklee he had a patent. For five years after graduation, Kevin worked a variety of side jobs while gradually meeting serious people who believed in the business. Finally in 2020 he was able to work full-time on his business, plus some creative projects on the side. In 2022 the company hired six employees. While still reliant on investor money, the plan is to become profitable this year.

Choice Quotes: “Fall in love with learning something, that is serving people you care about. That will take you to the stars.”

“I love the freedom to decide my own fate and confront that. There’s a certain honesty and self-acceptance that comes with that. I literally spend every day thinking how I can create technology, how can I create things that improve the lives of overs. . Getting out of Berklee I said I’m not going to be a musician–that’s too limiting–but I’m going to be musical. At the core, I’m a creator!”

“My double major was a heavy workload, but it taught me about time management and different skills.”

“There’s no sense of stabiity yet. You grow and you face bigger challenges.”
