Kyte Learning

Kyte LearningBrayden Wardrop and Asher Sume

Startups are kind of Brayden and Asher’s thing. Probably due to some slight ADD and propensity for finding multiple whiteboard markers in their pockets every time they leave a room. They like the word entrepreneur and are impressed with themselves every time they spell it correctly. Over the past decade, they’ve both jumped feet-first into the ed-tech world beginning with their roles as a technology integration specialists in Colorado. Seeing the remarkable impact technology had on both the teachers and students there, they Co-Founded Kyte Learning to help bridge the gap between technology and the educators who work to use it in the classroom day-to-day.
