Ep. 72: Kevin Williams is a man of many hats, many talents, and many races and ethnicities.  Hailing originally from St. Louis, Kevin has a heritage that is quintessentially American and that consists of Black, Native American, Welsh and Jewish ancestry.

An alum of Morehouse College and Stanford University's MBA program, Kevin is also a proud military man, having served in the US Navy.  Before and after his MBA education, he worked on Wall Street, then he explored comedy as a creative outlet, and now he's found his true passion as an Ed-Tech professional for a California-based startup company.

He's also found the love of his life, who is about to marry.  Interestingly, Kevin's fiancee is a White woman from Florida, adding yet another layer to Kevin's multiracial life and experience.

A man of wit, wisdom, humor and warmth, Kevin is a good guy, a good friend, and a raconteur when it comes to his life, life in general and what it means to be a multiracial man in this World.  Take a listen.
