I’m honored to join a firm that truly lives its values and is boldly redefining its next generation.”
Kurtz brings extensive experience across public, private, academic and nonprofit sectors. Most recently, she served as corporate marketing lead for the National Renewable Energy Laboratory’s Innovation, Partnering and Outreach divisions, where she led strategic communications initiatives, managed complex multistakeholder partnerships and oversaw agency collaboration, content development and performance reports. She also held roles at the Colorado School of Mines, Pilgrim Advertising, Resort Technology Partners, and previously at GBSM from 1996-1999, and spent more than a decade as an independent strategic communications and marketing consultant, including previous work with dovetail solutions.
