Kristen grew up in Michigan and has called New York City home for over 20 years. In 2009, she opened a skateboard shop in the West Village called Uncle Funky's Boards. A Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma diagnosis in 2011 and subsequent treatment gave Kristen a renewed sense of purpose and affirmed for her that life is too short not to do what you love. She graduated from the 2-year conservatory Meisner acting program at William Esper Studio in 2016 and feels a tremendous sense of gratitude to have studied with Suzanne Esper. She is a member of The Barrow Group’s 2018/2019 Intern Company, where she studied acting with Shannon Patterson and trained on-camera with Stephen Singer. Kristen wrote and directed a short film about her houseplants called Lily and Frank, which is currently in post-production. She is also the proud human of a super sweet rescue puppy named Gus.
