Since graduating from Yale Law School, Kevin's work has focused primarily on the housing discrimination faced by individuals with disabilities. After two federal court clerkships, he enforced the Fair Housing Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act as a staff attorney for the Civil Rights Division of the Department of Justice. While working for the Civil Rights Division, Kevin initiated investigations and filed federal lawsuits to combat discrimination based on race, religion, family status, and disability. Kevin then became a staff attorney at Goddard-Riverside Community Center's West Side SRO Law Project, which is a homelessness prevention project that focused on the tenants of single room occupancy hotels in New York City. During law school he represented low income individuals through the Advocacy for People with Disabilities Clinic and the Housing and Community Development Clinic. Kevin spent his summers as an intern for the Welfare Law Center and the Brennan Center for Justice in New York, the housing authority of the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe in South Dakota, and Mental Disability Rights International in Brazil. Kevin is the author of The Transition to Section 8 Housing: Will the Elderly Be Left Behind?, which was published in the Yale Law and Policy Review. He is a member of the New York City Bar Association's Mental Health Law Committee.
