Born in Auckland, Kristina spent her early years there before moving to Canada, where she was raised until returning to New Zealand at 14. She's called NZ home ever since — settling out west, where she's lived since the age of 17 (that's 33 years and counting!).

Before real estate, Kristina built a long career in administration management and sales, spending around 15 years selling office products. She decided to follow in her father's footsteps and move into real estate at the end of 2021. While purchasing her home during Covid, she saw a gap in the industry for good, old fashioned customer service. That background shaped the way she works today — she believes in clients for life, and treats every person the way she'd want to be treated in their shoes. It's not unusual for former colleagues and clients to seek her out years later when it's time to sell.

What sets her apart? High energy, sharp problem-solving, and an infectious positivity balanced with pragmatism. She's not afraid to have the hard conversations — but always with compassion for the people going through them. Integrity and honesty aren't just words for her; they're values she lives by without exception.

Real estate has given Kristina something she treasures: the flexibility to be present while her son was at school, and the chance to pass on the business skills she's built along the way. It's been life-changing for them both — and she's excited for what the next year holds.

Ask the people who know her best, and you'll hear the same things: fun, friendly, loyal, exuberant, outgoing — the kind of person who lights up a room and will drop everything to help when it matters.
