The Life & Times of a Transistor Geek

I'm Kyle. I'm a software engineer at Tumblr. I'm a geek. This is my blog.

I run the Black Techies NYC. I've memorized Ohm's law.

I play more soccer more than I should. I'm a sucker for #soca and a #curlyfro. My spirit lives in #Trinidad

Want to know something?
