Born amongst Idaho's sagebrush covered planes of the Snake River, Kyle grew up playing in the mountains and streams of the whitewater state. After graduating from the University of Idaho in Moscow, Kyle continued to pursue his wanderlust and guiding passion by sleeping in rafts and guiding all summer while saving money to chase rivers throughout the world in the offseason, ticking off some notable first descents in India and Chile. Excited for a new challenge, Kyle is currently wrapping up nursing school on the East Coast.
