Hello! I'm Kyle

I'm a student, a musician, a computer hardware enthusiast, and an avid reader. I got my first computer when I was twelve years old and fell in love with technology. Since then I've accumulated knowledge and hands-on experience in a range of technical roles. I just graduated summa cum laude from Drexel University, where I studied Computing and Security Technology. I enjoy playing the drums, building computers, exploring New York City, and rolling d20s.
