He was ordained to the Lutheran ministry in 1893 and was pastor of a church in Seattle, Washington from 1893 to 1895. In 1895, Kvam moved to Rice Lake, Wisconsin and was pastor of the Norwegian Synod Church. In 1911, Kvam retired from the ministry because of ill health. In 1917, Kvam served in the Wisconsin State Assembly as a Republican legislator representing Barron County.
