Kristy is an incredible designer, artist, adviser, and leader. She has an uncanny ability to cut through the noise and focus on what’s important in a project, simplifying complexity and making the final product look effortless. I’ve had the opportunity to work with Kristy both as a colleague and later as a client, and I’ve been consistently impressed by her skill, agility, and foresight. Whether or not Kristy is officially in a leadership role on a project, she is truly leading the team with her expert guidance and seasoned perspective, coaching and advising others along the way. I would work with Kristy again in a heartbeat. She’s truly a pro.

Kristy is a stellar creative leader who I loved working with at UniGroup. Her ability to integrate business goals, brand strategy and design was always a key component in the exceeding of our annual objectives and success of our marketing group. Kristy takes a very organized approach to managing a high volume of projects and supports her team through creative collaboration and direction. I always admired Kristy’s striking work ethic and her artful approach to solving business problems - hope to work with her again one day!
