Do you play tennis? For how long? Did you play at CCRC?

No! I love to play when I can, especially with my mom.

Do you or did you play any other sports?

Volleyball, the better of my athletic pursuits. I have played club volleyball since 4th grade for High Performance VBC. At High Performance, I made it to Nationals every season, with our team's best finish in my last year, when we earned 5th in the nation. I also played at SLUH, as the starting libero all 4 years, where our team won 3 STATE Titles and 1 (heartbreaking) State Runner Up. Currently, I play D3 Volleyball at Carthage College. We won our conference my freshman year, and this past year COVID had other plans. I am the starting libero and loving collegiate athletics.

NOTE FROM DANI- Our sweet, humble Kyle did not include a few things and I thought I should mention them because Kyle is kind of a big deal.

• Won a gold medal representing USA Volleyball

• Won a National Qualifier Tournament his senior year

• SLUH Named An Award After him for players who celebrate effort, attitude, performance and leadership.

Are you still in school? What are you studying?

I am going to be a junior at Carthage College. It's a small liberal arts college on Lake Michigan, between Chicago and Milwaukee. I am pursuing a double major in Marketing and Management, with an Economics minor. 

Most amount of racquets you've strung in a day?

Zero. I'm not highly skilled.

Most amount of tickets you've entered after a shift:

Honestly should have counted, but probably upwards of 525.
