*indicates new works by young playwrights
"In a 30+ year career of working with youth artists, I’ve never encountered anyone with Kyle’s skill set, ambitious drive, and passionate commitment to creative leadership. Kyle finds fulfillment, challenge, and meaning in organizational growth. He is the only student in all my years of youth arts leadership work I've entrusted with such a high degree of budgeting, strategic planning, artistic oversight, and leadership of both peers and adults. Kyle is truly one-of-a-kind, and every artistic leader in Seattle who has encountered him (and most have) agrees." - Shana Bestock, Executive Director (Penguin Productions)
"I first met Kyle when he was only 16, but he spoke like an experienced colleague in the field. I rarely find anyone—let alone a teenager—who can hold their own in a spirited discussion with me the way that Kyle can. His intellect is staggering, and his artistic perspective is remarkably developed for someone his age. Kyle’s production of 'Fiddler on the Roof' at Village Theatre was incredibly artful and massively well-received. He coaxed strong performances, crafted rich onstage events, led a team with positivity and wit, and gave the audience a production which they could barely believe was created solely by students. Kyle is a leader, a great thinker, a funny dude, a kind and empathetic person, and a careful listener and learner. It’s clear that we’ll all be working for him one day." - Adam Immerwahr, Artistic Director (Village Theatre)
I am the Supervisor and former Production Manager for The Nitery Experimental Theater (NExT), collaborating with PhD candidates to run Stanford University's only student theater group with a dedicated facility.
A few shows I produced outside of the Nitery:
A few programs I launched at Penguin, the production company I led in high school:
"Kyle is a creator, connector, and leader of the highest order and a person of the utmost respect, responsibility, and professionalism. He never cuts corners or looks for the easy solution; he always looks for the right decision, even if it means altering his original vision to better meet the needs of the project and the people working on it. He will realign the goals of a project with the people he collaborates with and the skill sets and unique perspectives they bring. Kyle always centers other voices in his collaborative process and empowers his peers to bring their intangibles into their work." - Aaron Alonso, Artistic Programs Manager (Seattle Rep)
"Kyle is a remarkable young professional with exceptional people skills and an instinctive grasp of both artistry and administration. His ability to synthesize creative vision with strategic thinking sets him apart not just from his peers, but from professionals twice his age." - Anna Klein, Education Manager (Union Arts Center)
