Kevin Holst works at Google managing crisis response partnerships for products including Google's AI-based wildfire boundary maps and flood forecasts. Prior to Google, Kevin held leadership positions at various international non-profits including World Central Kitchen (WCK), where he developed a passion for helping communities affected by crises. During his tenure as the Director of Development and Communications, the organization launched large-scale disaster relief efforts starting with their direct response to Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico. The team activated 20,000 volunteers and became the largest meal producer on the island, delivering over 3.5 million meals in the months following the hurricane.
