Russ Kuntz

After 26 years in the Navy’s Submarine Force, Russ and his wife, Melissa, made their way to Fargo. Russ is the Senior Vice President of Operations at Cresa and together, he and Melissa own Olive & Rust in downtown Fargo.

A servant leader with integrity, Russ is hardworking, driven, and passionate about helping others. He loves spending time with family, especially his grandkids, Edith and Otto, and enjoys traveling, golfing, and cheering on NDSU and the Vikings. Fun fact? He spent his junior high and high school years milking cows and dreams of having a hobby farm in retirement.

Through life’s ups and downs, Russ has relied on God’s guidance and love. His mission? To lead with a servant’s heart and help others experience the hope and direction found in Jesus.
