Kurtis showed great initiative and worked productively when little supervision and guidance were available. Frankly, he could have run things quite smoothly without me. He recognizes what needs to be done and sets to work without being asked, and he constantly looks for ways to improve upon the status quo.

Kurtis was an integral part of the marketing team and an extremely talented designer at MPM. […] His attention to detail, follow-through, and understanding of marketing and business made him an invaluable asset to the marketing team and MPM. He is a born leader—quickly gaining respect and admiration from coworkers. Without Kurtis, marketing and respective technology for the company would have been stunted. He’s forward-thinking and an incredible problem solver.

In no time, Kurtis managed to completely immerse himself in the marketing department, taking on duties that were both part of his job description and those that were not but needed attention. His creative work brought a complete[ly] new dimension to the organization
with a fresh voice, impeccable taste and punctuality. Kurtis became an important, strong voice in the organization’s designs, marketing strategies, and data analysis.

Kurtis fostered a great rapport amongst the team, kept track of everyone’s workload (and actually recognized what each of us were working on at any given time, and when our workloads were getting high), and offered support at every turn. He also thought constantly about ways to improve our processes and how to collaborate more effectively across teams and departments, even spearheading new product rollouts and a website redesign for our department.

Working with Kurtis includes having someone in your corner and a mentor at all times. He is data-driven and innovative. He might add a task to your workload but he creates the easiest route to integrate it. He continues to mentor and suggest avenues to help you grow as well! Kurtis also promotes work life balance and cares about his team more than just work related. He has been one of the best supervisors I’ve worked with. You’ll enjoy witty banter, easy communication, and support when working with him!
