Meet Kris

I’m a people person, a middle child, a lover of food, art, and sunshine. Oh!—and coffee (good coffee!) I believe sequins are for everyday wearing, and that you can never have too many books.

I am the author of a handful of books, and a contributor to a few more. I am the Founder and Director of Refine {the retreat}, a Christ-centered creative retreat for women, and the host of Refine{d} the podcast. I also write for The Cultivating Project an online magazine.

I have been a featured guest on numerous podcasts, and enjoy connecting with people when I speak at events around the U.S. I live in the middle of Ohio with my 4 children and husband of 25 years.
