Kurt R Smock

Biography

Kurt Smock is an Enrolled Agent who works on the tax team at Gehman Accounting. Kurt is involved in tax preparation, business consultation, client acquisition, and building custom tools for client data analysis.

In 2016, a rare autoimmune condition temporarily caused Kurt to lose sight and hearing. Once the symptoms were resolved, he was left with permanent damage to his balance and hearing. Not able to continue in demanding physical work, he decided to pursue the aspect of business operations he was most passionate about, finance. He re-enrolled in university, going to school full-time while raising a family, working, and fulfilling his roles at church. After graduating from Liberty University, he obtained a bachelor’s degree in accounting.

A York, Pennsylvania native, Kurt and his wife Katie were married in 2002 and have five children. Growing up, he worked as a carpenter in his family’s small business, making handcrafted furniture. He started his first business, at age 23, in the home improvement industry.  Kurt enjoys interaction and helping others in business. However, if you ask Kurt, he will say his most significant accomplishment in his life is his children.

When Kurt is not at work, he works as a leader in an international online group of investors and speculators, coaching aspiring entrepreneurs. He enjoys reading books about financial speculation, economic history, behavioral finance, and neuroscience. He is also involved in his wife’s children’s entertainment business, Atomic Bounce. When he’s not doing those things, he’s learning programming languages, day trading in the CME Futures markets, building economic forecasting mechanisms, or supporting his family in their ambitions.
