With a decade of owning and operating two treatment centers, along with years living in and around addiction himself, Kyle found his purpose in recovery long before finding The Living Room. Along the way, he’s supported thousands of people from New Jersey to Delaware to Florida. He’s tripled censuses. Yet he measures success not in numbers but in transformations. At the core of his connection to the cause is a belief that everyone, no matter their circumstance, deserves access to quality care. When he joined us with that philosophy in our first year, he quickly took on a leadership role that includes managing the program’s three sober living houses, supporting the clinical team in member progression decisions, and serving as a personal treatment liaison for members and their families. 

As much learned and as it lived, Kyle’s combined professional and personal experience means he leads with a distinct and felt humanity. He brings this depth of understanding to sometimes difficult conversations, in which he doesn’t just hear people out; he listens and leans in. His unique ability to approach uncomfortable situations with both compassion and honesty make him a trusted partner who guides without pressure or judgment. 

A real commitment to loving people until they love themselves sits at the center of what Kyle does every day. He removes barriers and relates with heart to make that possible. Turning his own intense pain of feeling trapped and alone into nine years of sobriety and a growing community, today he walks stride for stride with those seeking to live a life where hurt becomes the root of connection. His daughter, Mya, for whom he is determined to break the cycle of generational pain, is unquestionably his greatest joy. Seeing people go from imprisoned to unstuck is a close second.
