Kyle is media, communications and arts coordinator for the Beloved Community Center. A native of Wichita, Kansas he and his partner Nicole came to Greensboro as interns with Word & World, a small nonprofit that seeks to provide education, training, and capacity-building for Christian disciples dedicated to the work of social transformation.
He previously worked as a resident volunteer and as part of the Martin Luther King Campaign for Economic Justice at the Open Door Community, an intentional Christian community in Atlanta, Ga. Working primarily with homeless neighbors, Kyle was active in responding both to immediate needs of hunger and shelter as well as systemic oppression that led to such needs in the first place.
He has a bachelor’s degree in biblical studies and theology from Azusa Pacific University in Azusa, California. Using his theological education as a frame, Kyle began his work as an organizer mobilizing fellow students to be active in social justice campaigns, particularly against the Iraq war.
Currently a member of Faith Community Church, where he sings in the choir, Kyle is an amateur musician. Though he only has nine and a half fingers, he still enjoys picking on the banjo and singing folks songs with friends.
