In addition to other positions he held in the field of architecture, he was also a Senior Production Specialist for Talbots.
Kinney brings significant background in the application of Revit and other building model software to the field.
The Brockton, MA native enjoys watercolor painting in his spare time. His areas of interest include seascapes, landscapes, and boats. This has been a favorite pastime of his since he was 17.
