KEVIN COCHRANGraphic Designer

DREAMER. DESIGNER. DOER.

BIO I am from Independence, Kansas. I am a Senior at Pittsburg State

University, working on my Graphic Communications major, with an emphasis in Graphic Design, and a minor in Commercial Art. I will be graduating in December of 2014.

I've spent the last 20 or so years traveling the world as an intelligence analyst for the United States (U.S.) government. I've visited more countries than I've fingers and toes, literally sailed around the world, traveled through both the Suez and the Panama Canals, visited 5 continents and sailed most of its oceans and seas. I’ve stopped drug traffickers off the coasts of South and Central America, battled pirates in the Caribbean and off the Horn of Africa and hunted down terrorists the world over. I’ve spent boots on the ground time as a sailor in Iraq, Afghanistan and Kenya. I've lived abroad for several years in both Japan and Germany, as well as, living on the East, Gulf and West Coasts here in the U.S.

I've always loved to travel, but hated the time it kept me apart from my family. I figured it was time for a change, so here I am. I am a single father with sole custody of my three awesome children, my son Jacob (18), my daughter Maddison (12), and our French bulldog Dexter (5).
