Welcome New Bluff Park Art Association Member: Kevin Phillips

Kevin Phillips grew up surrounded by creative people. Artists. Musicians. Writers.  From his formative years, he wanted to join them. From assisting his Mom prepare for a craft show or helping a family friend build props for a church play, to taking piano lessons so he could be part of the action himself. Kevin’s love of art is rooted in those earliest days. He is especially interested in how art can create an emotional response and speak to people so differently.

Kevin is Vice President of Customer & Creative Operations at Mspark, a Birmingham-based media company. Prior to joining Mspark, Kevin served as a key leader in many areas within AT&T (marketing, sales, service, and technology). He previously served as Board Chair for an Atlanta-based non-profit, Beacon of Hope. Kevin is a graduate of Samford University (BS, computer science) and the University of Alabama at Birmingham (MBA).

A Birmingham native, Kevin returned in 2021 after spending 20 years in Atlanta. In his spare time, he loves to travel, always has a camera in his hand, and plays the piano nightly for therapy. He is also an avid reader who is never far from a book (or three).
