ABOUT KURT

Entrepreneur, Public Servant, Resilient Leader, & Digital Growth Advocate

Kurt Thigpen

I’m not the kind of leader who follows the pack.

I built my career by questioning the rules and creating opportunities where others saw obstacles.

As the CEO of Ace Studios, I’ve worked with countless businesses to scale their impact and grow their brands, while staying true to their values.

My path has taken me from leading creative international campaigns to advocating for inclusivity and resilience in leadership.

Through the challenges I’ve faced—whether in business or public service—I’ve learned that true leadership isn’t about having all the answers.

It’s about showing up, staying authentic, and pushing forward, even when the path isn’t clear.

My mission is simple: help others lead with purpose, build brands that stand out, and grow businesses that thrive in the digital age.
