Born and raised in Milton, Wis., Kristin trekked two hours north to Stevens Point for college. After graduating with a snazzy portfolio and BFA in Graphic Design, she landed what could only be described as a dream job at BRAVA Magazine. Four years of blood, sweat and tears later (no joke!), she’s still got her nose to the grindstone as art director of Madison’s #1 women’s magazine.

A self-proclaimed typography nerd, Kristin spends most of her spare time with her 1882 letterpress. When not designing or printing, she enjoys cooking, decorating her 80-year-old home and blogging about creative ventures.
