“I started working with Krista as my career coach after a short introductory call and already in those 15 minutes I felt that she was the right fit for me. I loved her structure, her clarity, and the way she immediately explained how the coaching journey would look like. At the same time, she has a warm, authentic, and human approach that made me feel comfortable and safe from the very beginning.
In our sessions, Krista helped me gain real clarity on my next steps. Together we worked on defining my personal brand, and I finally understood what I truly want, even the things I couldn’t admit to myself before. Krista has this incredible ability to create an atmosphere of trust where you naturally open up. Through her thoughtful questions, she gently guides you in the right direction while allowing you to discover your own truth.
I genuinely enjoyed working with Krista and I can highly recommend her to anyone who is searching for direction, feeling stuck, or trying to figure out their career path. She is a wonderful partner on the journey to finding your purpose and building the future you want.”
— Asel, Creative & Coach“I started coaching with Krista after almost a year of chaos, uncertainty, and a lot of unanswered questions. It was my first time trying coaching, so I had no idea what to expect but honestly - I couldn’t have picked a better coach.
Krista is super empathetic, calm, a great listener, and I always felt completely myself in our sessions. She’s practical, professional, and absolutely empowering. The resources and exercises she shared really helped me make sense of my inner chaos.
If you’re going through a tough time or feeling stuck, Krista is the person to go to. Wholeheartedly recommend.”
— Lucia, Customer Success Manager“Working with Krista has been one of the most grounding and inspiring experiences in my career journey. As a creative coach, she helped me reconnect with what truly drives me, not just in terms of job titles or industries, but in understanding what motivates me at a deeper level. Together, we explored the alignment between who I am, who I want to become, and the kind of work that genuinely fulfils me.
Krista has a rare combination of empathy and clarity. She always listened carefully, made space for my story, and somehow knew how to name the things I hadn’t quite seen myself. Her insights felt both intuitive and precise, offering new perspectives, helpful suggestions, and thoughtful encouragement every step of the way. Our sessions felt like time with someone who truly cared and was fully present, the kind of coach you feel lucky to have found.
I can’t recommend Krista enough, not just as a coach, but as a kind, generous human being who brings real heart into her work.”
— Monica, Art Director“Individuals who engage in career coaching experience a 70% improvement in work performance, 80% increase in self-confidence, and an 86% increase in job satisfaction.”

About me.
I am a coach, mentor, leader, and creative. I’ve spent my career building, developing, and coaching large teams in complex corporate environments. Through this work I’ve learned the deep importance of building trust, communicating effectively, investing in others, and advocating for yourself. I have the same passion and expertise for brief writing that I have for boundary setting and I’m thrilled to blend it all into my coaching practice.
I was born in New York City and spent my early years surrounded by expats at the United Nations International School. This early exposure to such inspiring cultural diversity shaped my outlook on the world and played an important role in my creative pursuits. After university, I spent over a decade living and working in Boston before moving to Berlin to pursue a new life adventure. I’ve grown more in my life as an expat than at any other life stage and I’m excited to bring my unique perspective and creative problem solving to your biggest challenges.
