COO

Growing up on a small farm in eastern Montana didn’t stop Kevin from yearning to work in entertainment. To help fulfill this dream, he graduated from San Diego State University with a B.S in Television and Film Production. Working in the industry since he was 19 years old, Kevin quickly rose through the ranks focusing primarily on cutting edge technology used in sports broadcasting. For 17 seasons, he worked the dream job as a “yellow line guy” who ran the electronic First and Ten line used on NFL and college football games. The same technology took him to several World Series, Olympics, Super Bowls, Indy 500s and All-Star Games. After earning 3 Technical Team Sports Emmys he decided to hone his skills in operations as the Global Operations Manager for Intel Sports followed by the Head of Production and Studio Operations for Intel Studios. After co-founding Connectivity Networks with Aron and Phil, Kevin looks forward to using his knowledge of operations and technology to scale iDogCam into a global brand and a company that pet lovers can trust.

VP of Operations

Having a fascination with weather and wanting to know how and why it happened (and not being afraid of the spotlight) lead Jack to a path in television, starting his career off as a weekend meteorologist at KOMU-TV. Once there he realized that desire to learn the “how” and “why” of things allowed for him to become very skilled at the technical side of television. From there he spent over 20 years in the broadcast industry working live sporting events for all the major networks. He covered everything from high school game of the week to The Final Four, eventually working for SMT, a leader in technical innovations in sports broadcasting. During his time at SMT he won 2 National Emmy Awards for his efforts. More importantly he met Aron, Kevin, and Phil. They asked him to take his technical knowledge and desire to know the “how” and “why” of things to help grow the iDogCam family. He gladly came aboard. He now works from home in Franklin, TN, enjoying life with his wife Cara, daughter Scarlett, and dog Teller.

He has a background in sports television as Tech Manager & Operations Manager for Intel Sports as well as Engineer in Charge working with all the major broadcast networks such as NBC, ABC, CBS, ESPN, and others.

Installation Manager

Having crammed multiple lifetimes into his 6 decades on the planet, GW finds himself perfectly suited for the role of Installation Manager. Becoming an entrepreneur in his teens, GW has owned numerous businesses that were based on whatever he was interested in at the time - rather than a planned career path. Having owned businesses in fine jewelry as a goldsmith, aviation, real estate, import/export has prepared him for figuring out most any project that is placed in his care. A 20-year professional hang glider pilot, GW’s participation in that sport culminated with a Gold Medal from the 2000 World Championships at Mt. Olympus in Greece as well as many other trophies and awards. GW is the youngest inductee into the Hang-Gliding Hall of Fame. An ultralight, paraglider, sailplane, and general aviation pilot rounds out his accomplishments in the various disciplines of getting off the ground. 15 years in cutting edge TV Sports technology delivered 4 Emmy Awards to GW for his work on such projects as NFL and College Football, Major League Baseball, NBA, Nascar and America’s Cup Broadcasts. Most importantly, this 15 years in TV technology brought him to meet and become great friends with every person involved in iDogCam. Other than being a Project Manager, a builder, a Master Coast Guard Captain, GW is actively involved in his community on the Outer Banks of N.C. and serves on the board of 2 foundations. The experience of managing the installation of $1.5 Million Dollar high-tech camera systems in NBA Arenas and NFL Stadiums was great training for his position of managing the installation of iDogCam systems in our customer’s facilities across the country.
