Honoring Kyle Bowman: A Veteran’s Journey from Military Service to University Leadership

For 24 years, Kyle Bowman has been a dedicated member of the university community, with the last six years spent enriching the Health Sciences Library as a member of the library’s executive team. His journey, however, began long before his tenure at the university, rooted in growing up in New York City and his military service from 1992 to 1999 following his high school graduation.Kyle joined the military as Operation Desert Storm was concluding. After completing boot camp, he was stationed in Germany and Italy, where he gained invaluable experiences that have shaped his professional ethos. Reflecting on his military service, Kyle emphasizes the importance of allowing subordinates the freedom to explore and develop beyond their job descriptions. He believes that failure can be a powerful learning tool and stresses the significance of supporting and defending team members externally, while addressing any issues privately.One of the most profound lessons Kyle carried with him throughout his life is the value of diversity. Born in Port of Spain, Trinidad and raised in Brooklyn, New York, Kyle has always embraced diverse cultures and perspectives. His military service further reinforced this appreciation, as he worked alongside and reported to a wide array of individuals from different backgrounds. “Getting diverse views and perspectives when it comes to problem-solving comes natural to me and something I always seek out,” Kyle said.Kyle’s understanding of the challenges veterans face in the workforce is personal. As a member of the executive committee for the UVA Military Veterans Employee Group, he is committed to providing ongoing support to veterans. The group’s initiatives extend beyond Veterans Day, including sponsoring breakfasts around Grounds and discussing ideas such as development of a mentoring program. In addition, the Group has discussed veteran support ideas, such as assisting veterans in translating their military skills into a civilian resume.The Health Sciences Library takes great pride in Kyle’s service and contributions. His leadership and dedication have made a significant impact, and the library is honored to be his workplace home. Kyle Bowman’s story is a testament to the enduring value of military service and the positive influence veterans can have in the civilian workforce. ...
