Speaking for a Reviving Planet 🌱‎

I help regenerative, ecological, and community-enriching organizations tell their stories and design content for change.

Kevin Flinn

I’m a content strategist and professional communicator who has led public relations, UX content, and campaign development across healthcare, government, defense, and nonprofit sectors.

My work includes shaping communications and content systems for multinational operations, building digital products across cross-functional teams, and aligning strategic content across multiple, complex platforms. I now focus that work on ecological and community-focused efforts, such as regenerative agriculture, conservation, sustainability, or public well-being.

Outside of work, I enjoy hiking, reading literature, grappling, and cultivating a food forest at home. Ask me about Rousseau’s Social Contract or the time I hitchhiked halfway across the country.

Why I do It

Why I do It →

I live in alignment with the work I support:

  • Local, organic food sourced from small, regenerative farmers (no food purchased from a restaurant in 3+ years and a grocery store in 2+ years)

  • Zero food waste household (compost)

  • Support regenerative practices, not destructive ones

  • Ethical consumerism, such as avoiding plastics and environmental toxins, waste reuse (even reusing plastic sandwich baggies thanks to my partner, Jess)

  • Growing a nascent food forest

  • Sharing and learning new ways to work out of unsustainable systems

Content reflects the systems we’re born into. And the systems we build should reflect the world we want to live in.
