Kristina is proactive and is constantly on the lookout for ways to improve the quality of what we put out in the world and who we bring into the organization.

She brings that experience into our conversations and has an ability to see around corners.”

Whether it's because Kristina has so much personal experience building business, has worked at the top firms or it's just innately who she is, she's a founder's ideal partner. She is one of those rare people you look for and seldom encounter - someone who means what she says, says what she means and is always solution oriented. Having her at your table is an unfair advantage in and of itself."

Kristina is extremely helpful at three levels: she has a great eye for talent, she knows how to effectively help in funding rounds, and she has a great sense for the consumer experience.”

 It's easy to find Investors that want to give you money because they believe you will be profitable.
