Meet OBJ’s 2018 Veterans of Influence
Here are this year’s honorees in alphabetical order, many of whom shared the top business highlight of their post-military careers.
Kurt Keaton, president of real estate and management services for Franklin Street:
“Joining Franklin Street has afforded me the opportunity to join a strong, well-established firm and be a part of building something from the ground up. In my first two years, we opened a new market in Orlando, as well as a new business line in project management. This experience, working hard to take new ground with a trusted team in a very tight-knit culture, is by far the closest thing to the camaraderie and teamwork that I loved in the U.S. Air Force.”
