About Kyle Calderhead
Born in Ohio and mostly raised here, Kyle Calderhead pursued his own education at large public universities before discovering the value of smaller schools, which is where he has spent his entire career teaching. It is where he met his wife of over two decades. He is thankful for the path on which God placed him – especially after being blessed with four children. When there is time for a hobby, he enjoys road cycling and crochet.
