Why I Love Hope

Kristin believes that Hope is a place where challenge spurs growth in body, mind and spirit. She is inspired by the community: the people, the accomplishments, the compassion and the deep roots. She is proud to wear her alma mater鈥檚 apparel and get the not-infrequent 鈥淕o Hope!鈥� from complete strangers.

Outside the College

Kristin most loves experiencing new things and new places with family and friends, whether in her own backyard or far from home. When traveling, Kristin, her husband, Joe (an 鈥�06 Hope grad), and their two children are happiest near friendly people, nature and water.

She likes being active: dancing, playing basketball and volleyball, running, walking, and hiking then cooling down with a good book (especially historical fiction, Brit lit or a good ol鈥� rom com). Kristin is a lifelong learner, so any time she can make it to a theater or dance performance, concert or insightful lecture or watch a well-done documentary, she鈥檚 happy.
