A little about me
01
About
A short introduction
Technical by training.
Curious by nature.
I’m Kyle—a technical leader who loves helping people make sense of complex systems and turn ambitious ideas into something real.
I live in San Francisco with my husband. We got married last year, and our home is happily run by Ella, our chiweenie with a lot of personality in a very small package.
Outside work, I’m usually planning a ski trip, a backpacking route, or the next meal. Travel, paddle boarding, and cooking keep me energized—and give me plenty of reasons to keep exploring.
