Krista in real life
What keeps you busy outside of work?
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with friends and family, exploring new cultures through international travel, and staying active through hiking and Tahitian dancing. I also love cooking, trying new experiences, and continuously learning and growing both personally and professionally. These passions help me stay curious, connected, and bring a fresh perspective to the relationships I build.

I strive to lead with kindness, integrity, and gratitude in everything I do. I believe meaningful relationships are built on trust, and that treating people with respect, empathy, and genuine care can have a lasting impact. I approach each day with a positive attitude, a commitment to doing the right thing, and a willingness to continuously learn and grow. Staying humble, valuing relationships, and making a positive difference in the lives of others are principles that guide me both personally and professionally.
