Summary
Kyle Shive is a versatile technologist and professional voiceover artist with nine years of software engineering experience and a polished home studio for fast-turnaround audio production. He blends back-end expertise in Python, Django, Linux and MySQL with front-end skills and hands-on experience migrating complex stacks (including PHP/WordPress), showing comfort across full-stack projects and infrastructure tools like Conda, Vagrant and AWS. Based in Edwardsville, Illinois, Kyle pairs pragmatic engineering work at companies like Gateway Blend and Quillt with creative side work producing commercials, eLearning, IVR and podcast audio from an AKG C214-equipped setup. His background in psychology, language studies and international teaching lends uncommon strengths in communication, narration nuance, and managing remote directed sessions. Always open to auditions and remote collaboration, he delivers both technical systems and narrative voice with responsiveness and a friendly, "guy next door" tone.
