As CEO of American Pacific Mortgage, Kurt has led the company since inception and through its steady disciplined growth over the last 16 years. His focus and vision have created a strong culture of service and a fierce commitment to sustainability. Kurt believes in the concept that production and producers are the fuel that drives APM and that his role in the organization is to serve producers, serve the clients and deliver high quality performing loans to the market! He is committed to doing so in an open and transparent environment, always offering stakeholders clarity and honesty in his dealings.
Prior to launching American Pacific Mortgage, Kurt ran his own retail branch, Big Valley Mortgage, which to this day is the largest, most successful branch in the company. With the help of a top notch management team in both organizations, Kurt maintains an open door policy that keeps him connected to the originators and clients needs while also staying in tune to the dynamic demands of the mortgage marketplace.
Having acquired a degree in economics in 1980 and spending six years in a corporate role at Shell Oil Company, Kurt started his career in lending in 1986 with Cal Fed Bank. Shortly thereafter he joined a mid-sized mortgage banker as a Loan Officer in the burgeoning markets of Sacramento, CA. It was in one of its suburbs, Roseville, that he launched his retail branch Big Valley Mortgage in 1990. American Pacific Mortgage followed in 1996. Kurt’s path from producer to principal has uniquely prepared him for leadership in the mortgage industry.
Kurt is the father of three boys and has been married to the same woman for 26 years. He says that being a soccer coach for the last 15 years has taught him more about managing people than just about anything else. He is an avid mountain biker (he used to race) and enjoys working outdoors at his ranch in El Dorado County.
