She has over 15 years of experience taking care of oncology patients in both solid tumors and hematologic cancers. She currently focuses in GI oncology. Kristin is a sub investigator on multiple clinical trials. Since her focus is in GI cancers it is important to incorporate clinical trials to advance our knowledge and treatment of these patients and improve upon their outcomes.

    Kristin has served on multiple speakers bureau's focusing on education of other oncology nurses in the treatment and management of certain cancers including lung, multiple myeloma, breast and lynch positive cancers. She loves to speak and learn amongst her colleagues and regularly attends national conferences keeping up to date in current literature and practices.

    Kristin loves both taking care of patients and spending time outdoors. She is always ready to help and when she is not at Huntsman you can find her on the ski slopes or out on her mountain bike. Originally from Chicago, she moved to the mountains of Utah in 2005 to spend time outside and could not have picked a more perfect place.
