"Kyle is a superb business development leader and provides excellent insights on an executive leadership team. While not afraid to challenge the status quo, he does in a diplomatic and supportive manner. He has also proven he can attract the best technical sales talent in the defense industry.

"Kyle is a big picture thinker, a team builder, and a shrewd executor. I have the pleasure of working with Kyle, crafting and selling AI-based solutions for financial services, government, and industrial customers. Upon interviewing with Kyle, I walked away with two distinct feelings - I can learn from him and I can trust him. I was not disappointed but impressed. I was impressed by his acumen, the strength of the team he put together, and most of all, his humble and serving approach to leadership. He's a "listen first" guy, seeking first to understand and then to be understood. In doing that, he empowers his team to execute. And execute we did -
achieving record growth with more to come... "

Democratizing the cloud & empowering customers to expand into new markets.
"I have had the opportunity to be a part of an amazing team of people that Kyle has built in an extremely short amount of time. When I joined Saffron, Kyle was just starting with a daunting task: build a sales team almost from scratch, develop a brand new market (enterprise AI software), all while delivering several times revenue growth in the first year. Amazingly, we pulled it off. "
