We have a new addition to our staff! Please join the Leadership Greater Huntsville team in welcoming our new Operations Director, Kevin Walker!
Kevin is a native of Brea, California, but he's called Madison County home since 2001. A 1990 graduate of UCLA, he returned to the Bruin campus for graduate school and completed his MBA at the UCLA Anderson School of Business in 2001. As a member of the UCLA Men's Basketball Team, Kevin played in three NCAA tournaments and continued his post-graduate playing career in Japan and Argentina.
Kevin came to Alabama to work as the Senior Manager of Business Operations for the Huntsville Flight of the NBA's G-League. The flight played in the Propst Arena at the VBC from 2001 to 2005. After two years of working with the flight, Kevin moved to hockey and served as president of the Huntsville Channel Cats and Huntsville Havoc from 2003 to 2014. He joins our team after serving as the Executive Director of the Downtown Express YMCA at Big Spring Park East.
Kevin is a single father to his teen son, Simon. In his spare time he does his best to stay in shape and is active in his son's athletic career.
We are looking forward to the experience and energy that Kevin will be bringing to the LGH team! Please join us in congratulating and supporting Kevin in his new role!
