Kyle Houser is currently in his 5th year of study in the Architectural Engineering Program at Penn State University. In May 2013, he will graduate with his B.A.E./M.A.E. specializing in lighting/electrical design and a minor in Architectural Studies. He is an active member in the Student Society of Architectural Engineering (former Bowers House Head), and student chapter of the Illuminating Engineering Society (current President). Additionally, Kyle is an Outreach Ambassador for Project Candle and has been a member of Engineering Orientation Network and Habitat for Humanity.

During the past few summers, Kyle has continued his education inside and outside the classroom. Two summers ago, he went to Rome to study the architecture through AE’s Sede Di Roma program. After Rome, he was a lighting design intern in Alexandria, Va and took online summer classes. This past summer, he went to Lightfair in Las Vegas and was an electrical intern in Baltimore, Md. These experiences taught him how different parts of the industry work and how they communicate with one another. In October, he will be attending IALD in Vancouver.

Kyle is an ambitious individual with a strong desire to learn. Fueled by his passion, this drives him to take on every opportunity presented as a chance to improve. Kyle enjoys sharing experiences to aid younger students to take advantage of opportunities that best suit their interests.

Outside of school, Kyle enjoys sports especially baseball. He also participated in a 32 mile bike ride last fall and hopes to participate in a half marathon and a Tough Mudder within the next year.
