Kirtis started his professional career in software development after graduating from the University of Missouri. After 3 years he decided it was not a great fit and pursued his master’s in urban planning at UW-Milwaukee. Following graduation, he accepted a position as a city planner with the city of Columbia, Missouri. In this position he built experience with municipal level planning, project management, plan review, public presentation, and public engagement.
Outside of work, Kirtis loves to ski (the photo included is from his recent trip to Lake Louise in Canada) and create digital art and music. He is also a huge fan of motorsports, bicycling, and college football.
