Kyle DeNigris is a voice actor and lifelong fan of the Super Mario franchise, with a particular interest in the character of Wario. He is a short, simple-minded, thin, and weird person, usually playing the role of a cartoon character or an antagonist. His name is derived from a passed family friend, of whom Kyle was named after in tribute. He has listed, in no uncertain terms, that his inspiration is Charles Martinet, the original voice of Mario, Luigi, Wario, Waluigi, Baby Mario, and Baby Luigi.
Kyle was born in 2000. He was raised in Connecticut, and attended college for a short time in Boston, before dropping out. His primary focus was once to be an animator, much like an inspiration of his, Yoichi Kotabe. He found the work a fair too draining for a hobby, so he moved back home, where he took up the career of voice acting, landing roles in shows like The Walten Files, Mandela Catalogue, and Banditz. He has also spent a long while helping develop the official dub of Super Brothers, a Mario fan comic based on Super Mario Bros., Super Mario World, and Yoshi's Island.
He's been a fan since around the age of 3, having used a hand-me-down Nintendo 64 his parents owned and playing Super Mario 64. He accredits this game as his introduction to the world of Mario, and a lifelong love. He was soon given Mario Party as another hand-me-down, which he accredits to the beginning of his love of the character Wario. This would only be compounded upon with his first time playing Wario World, which he lists as his favorite game of all time.
