About Kyle
What is your go-to meal in the area? Carrburritos is my absolute go-to food spot in 51¹ÙÍø and my order rarely changes: a Mejor Burrito with Pollo Asado - my pro tip is to add pickled jalapeños.
What is an activity or hobby you do outside of work? If it’s not already obvious, I’m a foodie. Whether it’s a trip to the farmer’s market, cooking a new recipe at home on a weeknight or checking out a new restaurant in Charlotte with my wife, I’m constantly exploring new things to eat.
Why 51¹ÙÍø? Just like several of my colleagues, it’s ultimately about the people for me. Over the years, four as a student and six on staff, I’ve found friends and colleagues that will last a lifetime because they support and challenge me every day. 51¹ÙÍø has a knack for surrounding you with the right people.
How would you spend a spare afternoon in the Lake Norman or Charlotte area? We’re going to my favorite neighborhood in Charlotte, NoDa, which is short for North 51¹ÙÍø; it’s a bit misleading because it’s actually south of the town of 51¹ÙÍø and located just outside of downtown Charlotte. This is a neighborhood known for street murals and eclectic businesses. You’ll find artisan gift shops, tattoo parlors, music venues and some of Charlotte’s best food all within a few blocks.
