Wolfworks
Architect
Kyle discovered architecture in high school and knew that was the work for him. After receiving his Master of Architecture degree from Wentworth Institute of Technology, he returned home to Burlington, CT. He spent 9 years in Hartford as a Project Architect. His passion and commitment for sustainable design and construction led him to Wolfworks in 2021. What excites him most about their work is the direct and daily collaboration with clients, their build team, and their trade partners to execute each project. The planetary impact of their work is a priority for Kyle, especially as he and his wife begin to teach their two young sons about leaving the planet in better shape than we found it, a concept he surprisingly learned playing little league baseball.
