For Kevin Butler, OAK4 Hidden Genius alum, brotherhood is at the core of his experience as a Genius.
In sharing what makes The Hidden Genius Project unique, Kevin says, “It’s definitely that sense of brotherhood,
just being connected with my brothers in that special way. It’s not like other programs or like anything I’ve ever experienced.”
Kevin, an 18-year-old graduate of Oakland’s Conservatory of Vocal and Instrumental Arts High School (COVAH), recently completed his
freshman year at Merritt College in Oakland. Though he is musically inclined, Kevin decided that for now, he’ll keep that aspect of
his life as a hobby while he turns his full attention to Computer Science, which is his major at Merritt. He’s not yet certain what
precise career he’ll pursue, but he’s sure that it will be in information technology (IT) or any technology field; The Hidden Genius
Project has been instrumental in supporting Kevin to get to this point.
