Kevin Turpin’s (leading) National Journal

“When I first started, I was the only black person in the company — so I spent the first part of my career conforming."

Kevin Turpin is the President of National Journal, a legacy media company for DC Insiders. Under Kevin's leadership, he has transformed the National Journal into an all-encompassing resource for government affairs executives and other policy influencers working in today's landscape. Additionally, Kevin is a member of the Diversity in Government Relations (DGR) Coalition, which actively champions diversity, equity, and inclusion in local, state and federal policymaking. You’ll enjoy this personal chat about growing up from Buffalo to Virginia Beach, and all of the experiences and adventures that have led Kevin to where he is today. For Kevin his open mindset - with a clear lens into diversity really impacts not just the people in his organization and business, but how the National Journal is approaching their partnerships across other companies and government organizations — making an impact on a much bigger level.
