Our guest:

Curtis Sullivan, Ph.D., VP of Workforce and Culture

Curtis spent the last decade as an academic earning his MA in Communication from the University of Northern Colorado in 2015 and his Ph.D. in Communication from NDSU in 2019. After three years as a professor, Curtis, his wife, and their ever-growing family of pets returned to FMWF with serendipitous timing just a month before the FMWF Chamber announced receiving the Good Jobs Challenge grant through the US Economic Development Administration. Curtis has been managing this project for the past year and is collaborating across FMWF to make positive incremental change towards the growing list of workforce challenges facing our community.
