Kevin A. Plank (born August 13, 1972) is the CEO and founder of Under Armour, Inc., a leading manufacturer of sports performance apparel, footwear and accessories based in Baltimore, MD.At University of Maryland, Plank avoided rules that restricted student athletes from taking jobs by launching businesses of his own.
