Who Is Kevin Lenane? Lenane, a former college football player, knows something about shouldering the load. The six-foot-four native of Concord, Massachusetts, played defensive tackle for Wesleyan University in Middletown, Connecticut, where he earned a bachelor’s degree in Archaeology. Following graduation, Lenane pursued various archaeological projects but quickly discovered that wasn’t the career path he envisioned. “I took some time and got involved in the entertainment industry,” he shared. “I worked for a couple of TV shows – Late Night with Conan O’Brien and Forensic Files. Since I was always into computers, I wound up doing a lot of the IT duties and editing of the video footage. As a side hustle to complement the low pay, I started a small website building business in the days when businesses were first coming online. I had so much passion for it and success with it, that I left the entertainment industry for technology instead and never looked back.&rdq
