Raised in Scottsdale, Arizona, Kurt always had an interest in the financial markets. At the age of 13, he purchased his first shares of stock with his paper-route savings.

This experience inspired Kurt to pursue a career in wealth management. After earning his B.A. in finance from Arizona State, Kurt joined Merrill Lynch in 1986. Two years later, he moved to Morgan Stanley and has been an integral member of the firm ever since, being named to the firm's President's Club every year from 2000-2022.

Kurt has built his career educating and advising clients on how to better understand and manage their total financial picture. He holds several professional designations at Morgan Stanley, including Family Wealth Director, Global Sports and Entertainment Director, Senior Portfolio Management Director and Alternative Investment Director. He is among an elite group of Advisors qualified to serve the specialized needs of ultra-high new worth families and those working in the sports and entertainment industries. These credentials provide Kurt and his colleagues an extensive range of resources designed specifically to help these families and professionals manage the unique challenges of significant wealth.

Kurt enjoys working with like-minded clients who value and appreciate the level of skill and service he and his team deliver. He guides them in simplifying their finances and developing a tailored plan to meet their life goals while helping them navigate the challenges of today's complex markets. Kurt receives great satisfaction knowing he is making a significant impact on the quality of his client's lives and appreciates the close personal relationship with the families he represents.

Believing balance is vital to a happy life, Kurt enjoys running marathons, travelling, playing basketball, reading classics, playing the guitar, listening to music and watching movies. He and his wife, Mary, have a beautiful home in Scottsdale and love spending time with their six grown children.
