Kurt Gies

Philadelphia, PA

To the untrained eye, Kurt's a pretty simple guy who wears hats, doesn't cut his hair, owns a pit bull and lives with his lady, Amanda, in Manayunk. But take a closer look and you’ll see that Kurt is actually a real-life ninja ... a social media ninja, that is. Digitally tiptoeing through uncharted search result pages to find unique accounts and enticing content, Kurt simultaneously works four Internet browsers, his iPhone, an iPad and a samurai sword to deliver the ever-essential WOW factor. Kurt keeps client needs first, gathering "social intelligence" to help each client stay ahead of the game with the latest commentary and buzz around their brand.

Kurt hails from Holland in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, and graduated from La Salle University, where he studied marketing and psychology. He comes to ChatterBlast from LevLane Advertising Agency with in-depth social media knowledge and experience. When Kurt's not chattering and/or blasting, you can find him at Broad and Pattison, living the woeful life of a Philadelphia sports fan—with the appropriate hat, of course.
