"Working with Kyle Ridley has been one of the most pivotal moments in my career. I first met Kyle in 2016 when he began producing for Good Morning Washington at WJLA-TV. From the start, he saw something in me and gave me an opportunity that changed everything — my first shot styling live on Good Morning Washington. That exposure opened so many doors for me, and I’ll always be grateful for Kyle’s belief in my talent before the world really knew my name. His professionalism, creativity, and commitment to showcasing others’ gifts truly set him apart. Kyle doesn’t just produce — he empowers. I’m honored to have worked with him, and even more honored to call him a part of my journey."

"I've had the pleasure of working with Kyle Ridley for many years. I distinctly remember the difference that Kyle made to the ABC 7 station's morning programming when he first came on board. Prior to Kyle's joining the team, I decided not to work with the station anymore due to the level of unprofessionalism that I encountered while appearing on Good Morning Washington. A friend suggested that there was a new producer and that I should try it out again. I was so grateful for her advice, because she was right. I found Kyle to be an excellent communicator and extremely professional. He gave guests ample time to prepare for their segments and clear instructions on what to expect. Working with him was a dream. Over the years, at both ABC and later Fox, give viewers the most entertaining and informative programming while providing guests with a unique opportunity to showcase their strengths. Kyle created award-winning shows by making the most of the hosts' talents and coaching guests on what viewers look forward to watching. He also created a fun, respectful environment on set. I consider myself fortunate to have been able to work with Kyle during his years as a producer and hope that we will be able to continue collaborating in the future. I am also proud to consider Kyle among my friends."
