Kristine has over 30 years of experience leading an intercountry adoption agency and is a licensed marriage and family therapist specializing in parenting, attachment, and adoption. Kristine received her BA in art history from Kalamazoo College, and her MA in counseling psychology from Argosy University, and is an EMDR-trained trauma specialist. Her work in adoption took her to more than a dozen wonderful countries, including South Korea from where she personally carried the last child who traveled to their family via escort through her agency. She considers her experiences as a mother the best training for just about everything. Kristine grew up with many cousins and childhood friends who were adopted and is grateful to work in a field that is equal parts challenging and rewarding. She is especially excited to serve on the Holt Board of Directors, supporting the important work started in 1956 by Harry and Bertha Holt.
