A native Georgian, Kevin Redmon and his wife of 22 years have lived in Cobb County since 2005. They have one 12-year-old daughter.

He graduated from Oglethorpe University in Atlanta with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration. At OU, he was a Freshman Senator, the Sophomore Class President, and the manager of the campus radio station, WJTL, for three years. 

After graduation, he spent 13 years as a manager for a small business in the event industry. This role focused on community relationship building and outreach (e.g., City of Atlanta NPUs) and coordination with municipal resources (PD, FD, Buildings, Health, Water, Mayor’s Office, and Business License). He was also a member of the City of Atlanta Mayor’s Office of Special Events Board (Reed).

Following this experience, Kevin has been in IT sales/account management for over 14 years, delivering value to Fortune 50 clients, managing innovation strategy, negotiating multi-million-dollar contracts, and creating executive-level relationships. He is currently a Regional Sales Manager in Splunk’s Strategic sales organization, representing the entire Splunk portfolio for PwC. 

Before joining Splunk, he managed the technology portfolio and innovation strategy for some of IBM’s largest clients, including JPMorgan Chase & Co., Anthem, Cigna, CVS Health, Fidelity Investments, General Electric, and Liberty Mutual. Within 18 months of returning to IBM, he received the “Best of IBM” award, which was given to just 500 out of 400,000+ employees.

Kevin also serves as Cabinet Lead on the Cobb County District 2 Community Cabinet for Commissioner Richardson. As Cabinet Lead, he helps the other Cabinet members deliver on their key strategic initiatives that help improve the community for all stakeholders. Before this role, he served as East Cobb Liaison on the Cabinet. He was tasked with community communication to and from the Office (residents, civic groups, HOAs, and businesses) and engaged in the execution of creative outreach, including videos and events.
