Mayor Kurt Wilson to Speak on the State of the City
A bold risk-taker, Kurt left the comfort and success of working in corporate America to build small businesses. As a job creator, mentor, and leader, Kurt has achieved the American Dream through multiple successful business ventures and by cultivating strong relationships with employees, business partners, executives, and fellow entrepreneurs. Kurt is a proud husband to Stacey and the father of four daughters, each of whom keeps him grounded in their own unique way. Through his family and life experiences, Kurt is committed to helping others aspire to achieve their own American Dream through a solid foundation on God’s gifts to him of vision, acumen, reason, kindness, tenacity, ability to execute, and love and service to his fellow man which propelled him to be elected Mayor of Roswell, Georgia, in November 2021.
