Hi. my name is Kristi.
I am a writer and strategist. I do my best work when the stakes are high and constraints are real. Clients call on me when they need to cut a clear path to their audiences using strategic yet human language and communications. I'm always up for a climb.
I develop brand frameworks, content strategy, messaging and marketing communications. That includes digital, print and social marketing campaigns for clients such as Cambia Health, Charles Schwab, GE, Microsoft, Motif Investing, Nike, Silicon Valley Bank, Yahoo!, and others.
I create and facilitate brand workshops. Need to inspire your team to think differently? Want me to show you how storytelling really is useful and valuable? I develop custom workshops—inspirational and practical—for internal marketing teams that need to grow and lead.
I have a bachelor’s degree in magazine journalism and a certificate in integrated marketing communications. My interests include great food and drink, underdog stories and interesting characters. I'm originally from the Midwest and found my Love Story in Portland, Oregon.
