Founder Bio

Kourtney Barrett, the founder of JUNK Brands, is a dynamic entrepreneur who’s as uniquely diverse as her ventures. By day she’s an award-winning business woman, and a master of her own destiny. By night she’s a loving mother of three, happily married to her high school sweetheart, Beau.

Kourtney lives, eats and breathes success as she juggles her responsibilities with unrivaled ambition. Hailing from a family of entrepreneurs, Kourtney has proven that success is earned through hard work and innovative know-how. Her devoted ambitions have led her to bachelor’s degree in business from John Brown University in addition to her many business successes.

JUNK Brands is not her first venture; she has been responsible for creating several small businesses including work in technology and real estate industries. She has also made an impact in the corporate environment with her contributions to AT&T wireless, Acxiom Corp., and as an award-winning real estate broker.

Just a small town girl with big dreams, Kourtney aspired to be an entrepreneur as a child, and found herself at the helm of a ship of opportunity as she navigates the choppy seas of the world of business. With a true desire to help people, Kourtney uses her drive, curiosity, and love for life to find innovative ways to make the world a better place.

When she isn’t changing the world, Kourtney can be found relaxing outdoors with a hot cup of coffee, finding inspiration in the beauty of nature.
