Curtis is Central 214’s new summer host, but he prefers to call himself a “Spacial Arrangement Coodinator,” because he thinks it sounds much more dignified than “Door Whore.”

Born in Chicago and raised in Garland, Texas, Curtis attended Southern Methodist University, earning a degree in advertising with a minor in corporate communications and public affairs. Working at Central 214 is the perfect summer job while he contemplates law school and starting a company with his best friend, Amanda.

Outside work, Curtis spends his time being a karaoke all-star, and lately, being mistaken for American Idol’s Adam Lambert. Admittedly obsessed with his appearance, Curtis will do whatever it takes to look good and young and never age. He is a former tennis instructor with the calves to prove it, and enjoys running and rollerblading with his dog, Chance.

The sarcastic, social, competitive flirt says there are two things he absolutely cannot

live without: Tex Mex and margaritas.
