Kurt was selected as Employee of the 1st Quarter 2008, because over the past two years he has taken on a variety of roles and responsibilities, without complaint, and he performs his tasks successfully. Kurt sets the example for others to follow by being proactive and coming up with innovative and creative ideas to help make the company be the best it can be.
Kurt is well known for his beautiful craftsmanship and in his free time he enjoys working with wood. He also likes to spend time snow skiing and, of course, he enjoys spending time with his family, which includes his beautiful wife, Charlene, and their 11 year old daughter, Ashton.
Kurt shared that Stronghold is the first company that he has enjoyed working for and one of the reasons that he loves his job is because he likes all the people he works with – Go Team Stronghold!
