As a child, Kyle lived in an apartment in a rural Iowa nursing home where
his father was the administrator and his mother was the social worker.
Now, as an applied gerontology graduate student at the University of North Texas,
Kyle researches ways to benefit seniors.

He contacted the office and offered to volunteer one day a week. E. Ross Burton, the Fort Worth Multifamily Hub director, and Robert Hicks, operations director, agreed to use Kyle's experience and education to analyze the effectiveness of the region's Service Coordinators. And this past February, Kyle completed his detailed analysis on Service Coordinator performance and suggestions on how to improve the program.
