Account Director

“Kurt is the most dedicated person to ecommerce development I have ever met. He never stops driving to improve the team and the final ecommerce solutions from all development angles. As busy as Kurt is, he always comes across relaxed, and excited about the ongoing developments, and always there to answer questions. As a designer I always strive to design the best solution, but sometimes when working on a design for a while you become blind to problems. Kurt is always honest in his comments, but always returns with constructive feedback and perfect solutions to the problem at hand. His eye for detail and quality has sharpened my own, and my designs have improved because of this.”

Lead Designer

“Kurt is totally focused on ecommerce and spends his whole life working to build the most advanced ecommerce solutions. He spends a lot of time working with the web development team in Advansys to improve the coding used within our solutions as well as researching regularly to find any new information or techniques that we can use. Kurt always answers any questions asked from his team to pass on his knowledge and experience, always giving more than enough information to ensure that we fully understand the situation.”

SEO Account Manager

“Kurt is very technically minded but never loses sight of the business requirements of each job, no easy task for someone who by nature enjoys the challenge of extending the functionality of any system that he designs or works with. Along with this technical skill he has the rare gift of explaining how any bit of a system works in such a way that it is understandable by those less tech-savvy.”

He is super-enthusiastic and always on hand with new initiatives for our website, often way before we highlight our need for solutions. He is an asset to Advansys.”
