Kristen’s life started somewhat humdrum, compared to others. She graduated from Cave Spring High School in Roanoke, VA (the star city of the South) and then went on to Mary Baldwin College in Stanton VA, where she earned a degree BA in Film and Television. Not long after graduating, the modeling world found Kristen, and she found herself traveling the globe. From Virginia to New York, then to the UK, Paris and Milan, Kristen was on magazine covers and lauded brands all over the world. Within a month of returning to New York City (after a whirlwind multi-year modeling career), Kristen landed her first union acting gig and became a working actor.

Not long after completing her first professional acting gig, Kristen packed her bags and drove to Los Angeles. It wasn’t long before she had roots, was in several acting classes and booked her first major feature film, David Lynch’s “Inland Empire”, not to forget several Award Winning short films. From weeks of work in LA and Poland (for Inland Empire), Kristen finished the project with a greater, deeper perspective on her skill and desire. The door swiftly opened, and Kristen found herself booking television and film projects.

With a slew of films under her belt, a few TV series finished, Kristen still isn’t satisfied and knows there’s so much more to experience. Kristen lives in Los Angeles.
