Kristen shares her passion for amplifying the voices of survivors and building meaningful partnerships within the community to expand the organization’s life-changing work. She also reflects on her time serving as Interim Executive Director, where she helped guide the mission during a critical period of growth.

Before her work in the nonprofit sector, Kristen built a strong professional foundation in financial planning and operations. She served as a Manager of Budget for Collier County Public Schools, where she focused on strategic resource allocation, and previously worked as an Operations Analyst, using data-driven insights to improve organizational efficiency. Earlier in her career, she provided executive administrative support at Broadridge, demonstrating strong leadership in communication and coordination.

Her transition to Naples marked a turning point—where she was met with compassion, support, and a renewed sense of purpose.
