Kevin Alan Geyson (born 12 April 1984) is a Canadian diver who specializes in the 10 m platform individual and synchronized event.
He participated at the 2010 Commonwealth Games, winning a bronze medal with partner Eric Sehn in the 10 m synchro[1] while classifying fourth in the individual competition.[2] At the 2011 Pan American Games he again won the bronze medal in the 10 m synchro with the same teammate while classifying 10th in the individual event.
During the 2011 World Aquatics Championships he suffered from a road accident when he was hit by a driver after alighting from a bus; the incident occurred a week after Geyson ranked 8th in the 10 m synchro.[3] Kevin is now an athletic therapist, personal trainer and model in Canada.
