QUOTES FROM KYLE

  • “When we came out of college, both the bachelor program and their associate’s program, we made the exact same money when we started the hospital at the same time. I ended up meeting people that graduate from Ohio State the same year I did, started the same hospital jobs that I did.”
  • “you've got to keep everything in perspective. So what I'd tell people looking into that is you have to dive deeper than just school, no school, trade, no trade. It's really what do you have passion to do? If you have passion to do any of that, and it takes a little bit of a higher education, then by all means.”
  • “I thought those [accidents] never really affected me, but they did. And I didn't know they did until the one that was the straw that broke the camel's back. I had no clue, completely blindsided, went down a bad tunnel, pulled myself out of that tunnel, and now I'm in the position to go educate.”
