Kurt Becker | Advisor Consultant
(888) 244-5764 ext. 103 

Kurt started his insurance career over 25 years ago and has many areas of experience and expertise, now primarily focused on traditional life products.  He entered the Federal niche with GPM Life in 2012 and had sharpened his focus on providing agents the necessary skills and knowledge to succeed in this area.  Understanding that federal benefits can be complex and confusing, Kurt can help you navigate the best advice for your clients.
 
 Kurt makes his home in Kansas City with his wife Beth and their daughter.  When he's not helping agents succeed, he spends his time running (ask about the Boston marathons!), staying physically fit, cooking, a little coaching and cheering his daughter's many activities.   In his spare time, he has an active role feeding the disadvantaged in the KC area with nearly 60 tons of food being collected, sorted and delivered to 22 pantries this year.
