Kevyn, or Kevo Nobody, began his journey with TFD back in the Summer of 2021! It has now been a full year since we have gotten to know Kevyn. He is a YouTuber and this past year has been full of creating new content. He got to develop his skills and learn new things from his mentorship like how to tell a story creatively. Over the last few months, he has been working at TFD as our Video Content Creator. A year later, Kevyn is now working on a short film that will be coming out soon as well as continuing his growth at TFD! We are so excited to see what else Kevyn will accomplish!
