Kyle Woody

Founder and Executive Director

Mission Statement: Help our team feel inspired to go to work everyday, safe enough to leave their comfort zone, and fulfilled at the end of each day by the work they do.

Kyle is notorious for giving up on stuff. His kindle is riddled with half read books and his Netflix que is brimming with half watched shows. In 2018 he also called it quits on an 18-year career in construction. But he’ll never give up on Jack’s Caregiver Coalition. One of the three proud founders of the coalition, he has served as executive director since day one. You’ll often find him swearing at his laptop or feeling outnumbered by all the ladies in his group exercise classes. He is blessed daily by his beautiful bride, their five children, and their fur baby Janet.
