From his company's website, Reinvent.com 1, Kevin Ham, started Reinvent while completing his family practice residency in 1999. As a self-taught programmer, designer, and businessman, he continues to innovate as he pursues his vision of building Reinvent into a global media company. He was featured as the cover story of Business 2.0 in June 2007 and in October 2007, Dr. Ham was voted Domainer-of-the-Year by his industry peers.

Dr. Ham holds a Medical degree and a B.Sc in Biochemistry (Honors) from the University of British Columbia.

He is also responsible for working a deal with the government of Cameroon, which owns the .cm country code domain, to forward all non registered domains to his website agoga.com; which take advantage of users who mistakenly type .cm instead of .com. These domains resemble frequently visited websites. For example, if one types in example.cm with the intent to go to example.com, they would end up being redirected to an advertisement webpage. These domains redirect to the webpage http://agoga.com/ . This webpage reaches at least 30 million unique visitors a month.
