I had the pleasure to work with Kurt as a building principal for many years! Kurt provides a professional and high standard of customer support and professionalism to his clients. He goes above and beyond to help local schools when they are fundraising and is always looking to support schools he works with. Additionally, Kurt takes the time to stop by the schools he is working with to build relationships and better understand their needs. He is a strong communicator and dedicated!
