Kevin Leung - Performance ranks

Challenges: MPF percentile

N/A

Tribal: VFB% percentile

46%

Tribal: rVAP percentile

40%

Performance ranks are a quick visual measure of the contestant's season vs. historical data from all prior contestants, in three basic (scorable) categories:

1. Performance in individual challenges (MPF), as a measure of "physical game";

2. Ability to vote people out consistently (VFB%, or VFB/TCA), or "strategic game"; and

3. Ability to avoid being voted against (rVAP, or TCA-VAP) - which scales better than a percentage would - for "social/strategic game."

Kevin Leung - Bio

Official CBS Survivor 48 bio excerpts, (as preserved in Mike Bloom's Parade.com cast reveal, January 29, 2025):

"3 Words to Describe You: Energetic, social, determined.

Why do you want to be part of Survivor? I started watching Survivor during Cook Islands and saw Yul Kwon as an inspiration to apply. It has taken some time to be physically ready, but I believe now I have the strategic, social, and physical skills to do well on Survivor.

What’s one life experience you feel has prepared you for the game? As a side job post college, I worked at Abercrombie & Fitch as a greeter / model. I learned that effectively complimenting, smiling, and charming people while still being genuine goes a long way in terms of likeability. Those skills have prepared me to interact with all kinds of people in Survivor.

Which previous player do you identify with the most? Who do you think you will play most like? David vs. Goliath was my favorite season. I identify with most of the Davids (Christian, Nick, Davie) because of their tenacity and grit to band together despite their appearances. I hopefully will play like Kaleb from S45 and use my social charm to influence people, but hopefully not be too charming where they see me as a threat!

What will you value in an alliance partner? I will value someone who is flexible enough to look at all options. Doesn’t mean we are wavering, but thoughtful in weighing out all scenarios before coming to a decision.

Favorite Hobbies: Tennis, Barry’s Bootcamp, Escape Rooms

Pet Peeves: People who are always late.

What is the accomplishment you are most proud of? Getting an MBA and graduating top of my class.

What is something we would never know from looking at you? Though I don’t have children of my own, I really have the desire to help kids with disabilities. In 2019, I volunteered at an orphanage in Ghana and it was the most humbling and rewarding experience of my life.

...

Why will you be the Sole Survivor? I think I have the winning combination to be Sole Survivor. Athletic, social and smart? C’mon! I hope to charm my way to the million dollars!"
