Kristin
Operations Director
Senior Designer | By appointment only
HR & Special Projects
I bring to Green Lake experience managing dynamic teams and creating a superior service environment, skills I developed during my years as a group manager with Starbucks. At the shop, I coordinate in-store operations. While designing isn’t my main focus, I really enjoy working one-on-one with clients to create pieces that reflect their unique personalities. I tend to lean toward larger, modern designs with an organic twist.
I graduated from the University of Washington with a Bachelor of Arts in sociology and a minor in law, societies, and justice. After gaining experience managing teams and delivering excellent service at Starbucks, I explored other Seattle-based retailers to broaden my skills. I joined Green Lake in August 2009, focusing on in-store operations, customer relations, and website development.
Thanks to my parents wanting to provide me and my siblings with a wealth of experiences, I grew up living in various places like Chapala, Mexico; Austin, Texas; and Ketchikan, Alaska. Because of this, I love to travel, and so far, my favorite place in the world has been Amalfi, Italy, on the Mediterranean coast.
