Hi there, I’m Kristen…
A product strategy professional with over 5 years experience at the intersection of business growth and user experience, including:
B2B2C go-to-market strategy
Product management
Market research
Product investment strategy
Technology and operations transformation
Communications
As someone moved by art, fashion, and interior design, I’m driven to explore the part aesthetics play in product usability and messaging. At the same time, my interest in psychology fuels my curiosity about how people experience a product and a brand as well as how to creatively tell their story to consumers.
Interests
Travel and Portrait Photography
I’ve explored with digital and film photography for over 10 years, interested in continually discovering how to better capture emotion, shapes, and light.
Reading
I welcome any and all book recommendations! I love following the evolution of characters and their relationships, gripping storylines, and surprising endings. Some of my favorites include The Silent Patient by Alex Michaelides, When Breathe Becomes Air by Paul Kalanithi, Normal People by Sally Rooney, and Daisy Jones & The Six by Taylor Jenkins Reid.
Interior Design and Fashion
Expressing myself through personal avenues of design is a fun way to seek creativity and experiment with color, styles, and how they may or may not work together.
Outdoor Activities
Through hiking, skiing, camping, and more, I love to explore the outdoors. This allows me to connect with nature and I rely on a consistent dose of vitamin D, typically through the strong Colorado sun!
Creative Hobbies
Exploring a variety of hobbies and potential new passions is a fun challenge. My main escapes currently are sketching and knitting!
