BIOGRAPHY
Kristen began the road to performance at an early age in a small, one-horse town in Western N.Y., driving her parents crazy with impersonations of famous actors, rock stars and comedians. Her dream was to inspire people and to make them laugh (by any means necessary). After graduating from Syracuse University with a BFA, Kristen moved to Boston where she began working with local theater companies as an actor and costume designer. A few years later it was off to Seattle, where her film and commercial career took off. Kristen booked major campaigns for
Pet Smart,
Oregon Lottery and
Taco Time; and at one point, her
Tulalip Casino print ad was on nearly every bus and billboard across the city. It was in Seattle that she starred in over thirty independent films, including the coveted lead role of femme fetal Jeannie in
The Scratch. A few months after moving to L.A., Kristen’s career continued to rise with principle roles in national commercials for
Swiffer (the ‘Baby Come Back’ campaign) and the
Swedish Lotto, a small role in two episodes of
It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia and the success of her self-produced series of comedic short films called
PUCKER (now in its 2nd season). With acting and producing accomplishments under her belt, Kristen dove into the world of hosting, booking the
Variety World Conference charity event with Simon Cowell,
E3: Making the Game featuring Bear Grylls (Man vs. Wild) and other exciting red carpet events and shows. Today, driven by her expertise in art and design, passion for costumes and books and a true geek nature, Kristen can be seen on
Outta This World, a self-produced/hosted web series and blog about the art of fantasy and sci-fi. When she’s not busy interviewing Superman, you’ll find Kristen traveling the globe in search of adventure (and, at times, relaxation).
