My Story

M'athchomaroon! Kevin here. Break Out Geek is my journey into empowering fellow geeky people. Seeing a large divide between people like myself and the greater breadth of professional knowledge out there, I knew there was more than could be done to minimize the gap.

Using the powers of the Internet, I encounter successful movers and shakers who share their own struggles and victories—lessons that can allow us all to be better equipped to face the obstacles (and side quests) that lie ahead.
