Kevin - Not the Mississippi Map Turtle but Exhibit Designer
Kevin Perry is one of our many outstanding exhibit designers and felt his thunder was stolen, because our Mascot Kevin is outshining him here! So here is an introduction to our design department and the inner thoughts of Kevin Perry:
Let’s start at the beginning. He was born the 20th day of August in 1978 and the world has never been the same. His childhood was filled with Big Wheels, Match box cars and other shenanigans young boys get into.
Fast forward to 1999 when Kevin started taking classes at the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design, working toward his degree in Industrial Design. While attending MIAD, he started dating a beautiful girl named April. Kevin married April after graduating from MIAD.
He was a happy and energetic lad looking to make his mark, but the exhibit house he started working for wasn’t what he thought it would be. He needed to get out of there and work for a better company.
Then came the day when he received a voice mail from a man with an Irish accent, Mark Lynch. Mark informed Kevin that Catalyst was looking to hire another designer. He started at Catalyst March 12, 2007. Why Catalyst you ask?
