A graduate of Towson University, Kevin Bode joined Northwestern Mutual in 1987 as a Financial Representative. In 1989 he became an Employee Benefit Specialist and President of the Pittsburgh operation of Strategic Employee Benefit Services. Three years ago, Kevin decided to step down from management of the benefits company to be able to spend more time with his clients and to be able to devote more time to ministry.

He is an Accredited Investment Fiduciary and a member of the National Association of Insurance and Financial Advisors.

In February of 2017, Kevin and his wife Mary opened the Knead Community Café in downtown New Kensington, the first Pay-What-You-Can restaurant in Western PA. Residents of New Kensington, Kevin and Mary have two children, Chelsea and Lucas. Kevin is very active in his church, his local community and in doing missionary work in the Dominican Republic.
