In her time away from the office, Dr. Pyle enjoys spending time with her husband, Bryan, to whom she has been married to for 14 years. Bryan is a computer programmer at Leggett & Platt.

When they are not chasing their boys around, Dr. Pyle and her husband enjoy traveling and spending time with friends, family, and their fur baby Gracey (their Maltese!).
