Hi, I’m Kristina — I help today’s modern brands connect with people in a meaningful way.
As a Creative Director with 10+ years of agency experience, I’ve built my career on the belief that the best brands thrive by understanding their people - because connection is today’s currency.
My background in both business and art direction means I’m strategic, conceptual, and design-obsessed. I’ve had the privilege of working with some of the world's most iconic brands. I know how to build teams, mentor creatives, and navigate client relationships with grace and humor, to create powerful award-winning work.
My superpower is not just seeing the future trajectory of a brand - but building it.

P.S.
I’m big on passion projects—
When I'm not working, you can find me renovating our second fixer-upper, writing about design, illustrating watercolor interiors for clients like Studio Life/Style and Ginny MacDonald Design, and reading my daughters the children's book I wrote and illustrated. I’m a big advocate for reviving the lost art of making things that you’re passionate about ‘just because’.
