Workforce Solutions for North Central Texas 

Adam Kern is on a mission to educate the world…or at least North Central Texas, about the many services and programs available to all businesses within our great state – free of charge! From a clueless 23-year-old starting a beverage distribution company to where he is now, currently serving as a Business Development Liaison for Workforce Solutions for North Central Texas, Adam has always been about two things – people and business. Degreed in Business Management, spending almost 10 years managing customer solutions teams for two of the world’s largest financial institutions, and previously serving as a Recruiting Manager for Robert Half, Adam has had unique exposure working on both sides of the business spectrum – those seeking good work and those seeking good workers.
