Born and raised in Edmonton, Kurtis has never been one to have grand long term plans. A multiple time college dropout, he preferred working or travelling to academics. When it came time to buckle down and become an 'adult' he worked at a bank...then discovering how the world really works did what many young males in Alberta did in the mid aughts, went to work in Fort McMurray (as an untrained accountant). After 7 years of that, and with a young family, he decided that was not what he wanted to do with the rest of his life, and opted to purchase a Massage Addict franchise. 3 years and 1 pandemic later, he is the largest Massage Addict franchisee in the country with locations in Edmonton, Winnipeg, and Ottawa.
