Agent Details

Meet Phil

Real estate moves fast, and the right technology is what keeps a great team ahead of it. As Technical Director of the Kuykendall Team, my job is to bring today’s tools into every part of our business, so our clients get faster answers, sharper marketing, and a smoother experience from start to finish.

Where Technology Meets Real Estate

I oversee the technology behind our team, from the systems that keep transactions organized and on schedule to the digital and video tools that help our listings stand out. I’m always evaluating what’s new, including emerging AI tools, and putting the best of it to work for our clients. When technology is doing its job, you won’t notice it. You’ll just notice that everything happens quickly, clearly, and without missed details.

A Background Built on Technology and Problem-Solving

I earned my Bachelor of Science in Engineering Physics from Tulane University and my Master of Education from the University of Nevada, Reno. I’m currently completing my Ph.D. in Information Technology in Education at UNR, where I also teach graduate-level online courses in statistics, digital visual media design, game-based instruction, and technology training and consulting.

My research focuses on how technology and video can communicate information clearly and keep people engaged. I’ve co-authored published articles and presented at national conferences on instructional video and on generative AI in visual media. I’ve also spent years designing, recording, and editing video content, a skill that translates directly to how we present homes and communicate with clients.

My technology experience started hands-on as an IT technician. Later, as lead of the Technology Committee at Galena High School, I analyzed the needs of the entire school, inventoried hundreds of devices, led a team evaluating new options, and oversaw the purchase and rollout of more than $66,000 in new technology.

Teacher and Coach

For years, I taught math, engineering, and STEM at Galena and North Valleys High Schools in the Washoe County School District, and I coached football. Teaching taught me how to take something complicated and make it simple to understand. Coaching taught me that success comes from preparation, discipline, and a team where everyone does their part. I bring both lessons to the Kuykendall Team every day.
