Kurt was born May 28th, 1980, in Bismarck, ND. He was raised and educated in Beulah and graduated from Beulah High School in 1998. Following high school, he attended college at NDSCS in Wahpeton. After earning his degree in diesel mechanics, Kurt then moved to Bismarck.

Kurt worked for Falkirk Mine for 16 years. When he wasn’t working, he enjoyed fishing, camping, cooking on his smoker (ribs were a favorite!), and most of all, spending time with his family.
