ABOUT Kristin

Hi, I’m Kristin! I have been a Respiratory Therapist for 17 years now. Working at the hospital and helping people breathe easier has been such a rewarding job. Being able to ease patients fears and help them feel better is truly what I was meant to do.

 2023

Started Neighbors CPR


I grew up on a farm in Southern Iowa with my two older brothers. I went to school initially for elementary Education at the University of Northern Iowa then realized my true passion was for respiratory Therapy.

My husband and I both began school at UNI in 2002 but didn’t meet each other until 2005. He had transferred to Iowa State and I was in my senior year of college when my roommate, who had grown up with him introduced us. We now have been married for 15 years and have 2 children.

“I will never turn down sushi or wine.”

You can probably find me in one of these three places:

  1. Spending all free time getting my kids to practice or games, and I would have it any other way

  2. Relaxing on the couch reading a book

  3. Hanging out with friends

My friend and business partner, Beth and I have lived next to each other for almost 11 years and I cannot imagine having a better neighbor and family to raise our kids with!
