Kevin Finch is a senior at Madonna University majoring in communication. And communicate he does!
Kevin is a poet, activist and advocate. He is committed to helping his community and strengthening the culture around him. Kevin is a dynamic public speaker and uses his gift of words to encourage others. He has spoken at luncheons, church gatherings, halls and other meetings on a national scale.
At Madonna, Kevin is a tutor in the Writing Center, helping other students to improve their writing skills. He also is a peer mentor, working with incoming freshman to smoothly transition into the Madonna culture. Kevin is a member of Bridging Lost Gaps, an initiative for African American males, a former Resident Assistant in Madonna University’s Residence Hall, and a previous Michigan Service Scholar with Madonna University’s Service Learning Organization.
In his spare time, Kevin continues his journey as a spoken word artist. He lives by a mantra – “The correct use of culture, character, and communication creates credibility in the mist of chaos.”
