It was great connecting with Kurt! Not only is he sober, but he is also from my hometown of St. Louis, MO.

With an MSW from Missouri State University and an MBA from Webster University, Kurt draws from 15 years of business, technology, and service experience to offer effective peer support for mental health and substance use disorders.

He helps build meaningful connections with individuals and families, empowering them to embrace their strengths for positive change. 

Kurt's journey from culinary school to mental health advocate showcases the transformative power of resilience. Battling addiction since his early twenties, Kurt's story is a testament to committing to recovery. His roles as a Peer Support Specialist and LMSW reflect both personal milestones and professional achievements.
