In 2011, she founded Advising Generation Z, after completing a 5-month campaign visiting high schools throughout the Dallas/Fort Worth area as a promotional model for a media company. It was during her interactions with students from various campuses that Kristen saw young people struggling to find themselves. She instantly became passionate about giving children what she was given while transitioning from teenager to adulthood, which was a strong support system. Kristen graduated from Wiley College with a Bachelor’s of Science in Ethical Leadership and a minor in Conflict Resolution.
