​Bio:  Kristin is a conscious business leadership and executive coach passionate about and trained in social change, emergent leadership and human potential. Kristin has ten years of transformation coaching and leadership consulting experience, and brings over 20 years of multi-industry and multi-division business leadership experience to her work.  Her industry experience includes high-tech, hospitality, manufacturing, education, and non-profit. This eclectic background enables Kristin to bring breadth, depth and empathy to her work and provide highly customized coaching and training solutions that yield a high return on investment.

Most importantly, Kristin practices what she preaches, bringing her own style, creativity and humor to the art of guiding transformative experiences.

On a lighter note, Kristin loves outdoor adventure, creating mixed media art, and solving brain puzzles like those on PEAK and Lumosity.  She is honored to be loved by two dogs, a cat and a partner who works as a commercial fisherman in Alaska's sustainable fishery.  

​This Fall she visited Alaska for the first time, and finally understands the call of the "wild, wild west."
