Pro Bono
Kyle recently worked on a pro bono appeal in the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals arguing that the Confrontation Clause of the 6th Amendment is not satisfied when a witness feigns a loss of memory, and that witness’s unconfronted prior testimony before a Grand Jury is therefore read into the Court’s record.
Prior Experience
Prior to law school, Kyle worked for a boutique IP law firm in Chicago as a billing and intake coordinator, and as an associate producer for Big Ten Network (B1G Network).
Personal Interests
In his free time, Kyle enjoys re-watching heist films, playing basketball, rooting for the Chicago Bears, reading American history and fiction, and hiking.
