    On Kyle's mother's side, his great grandfather and great grandmother worked on jewelry, passing along techniques through the generations - making Kyle and his brothers 4th generation silversmiths.

He has been perfecting other types of jewelry like pendants, earring, and bolo ties. Kyle likes to use natural turquoise like Number Eight, Morenci, Blue Gem, Kingman, and Carico Lake.

    At a young age, he began winning awards from the SWAIA Santa Fe Indian Market in Santa Fe, New Mexico. These include Honorable Mention - Youth Division in 2007, and coming in second place in the necklace category at the 2013 Santa Fe Indian Market. Kyle continues to receive top awards for his fine craftsmanship.
