Hi, I'm Kyle!

About Me

I'm a product leader that likes to read, build side projects and occasionally write.

My Story

Interests

  • Travel: I've traveled to New Zealand (x2), Ireland, Scotland, Brazil, Germany, Singapore, Philippines and all over the United States.
  • Reading: I read a book every two weeks. I mostly read nonfiction but I'm trying to change that. Let me know if you have any good recommendations.
  • Sports: I'm a huge Blazers fan and never miss a game. I grew up playing basketball, football, soccer and hockey. However, I'm starting to feel a little old for those and I've transitioned to mostly playing tennis.
