“I worked with Kevin as a Content and Strategy Intern at Fundera for the first half of 2014. I initially had the fortune of meeting him through the Columbia Organization of Rising Entrepreneurs, where he mentored me and the club, often providing countless useful connections with entrepreneurs and startups, and advising the team with admirable professionalism. I thoroughly enjoyed working under the management of Kevin at Fundera. He mentored me meticulously as we worked on content and business development projects. I especially valued how he treated me as a full team member, explaining the rationale behind all tasks I was completing, and discussing the project’s challenges frankly with me. He made sure to coach, instead of just directing me to complete a list of tasks. He is also a caring leader, constantly checking to see if I had any feedback or problems with my work. As a result of his managerial style, I felt comfortable clarifying any doubts, and sharing my opinions. Kevin also has a remarkable passion and enthusiasm he brings to his work. This manifests into his ability to juggle many tasks effectively, with the highest commitment to detail and care taken in completing every task. He often leads several projects at once, and does not hesitate to put in extra time to achieve progress on each front. This is especially admirable as these are not straightforward, cookie-cutter tasks--many problems needed to be solved from scratch. Yet he takes to these challenges with confidence and gusto, while planning several steps ahead. I have nothing but admiration for Kevin’s work ethic and personality. His commitment, vast knowledge and energy makes Fundera an exhilarating, enjoyable environment to work in.”
