Kristen and her team specialize in Branding, Campaigns, Motion Design, Packaging, Brand Films and Experiences for clients ranging from Fortune 500s like Pepsi, Wilson, Foot Locker, and Amazon to startups like Revolin Sports and Cognitiv AI.

Kristen started her career at Nike WHQ, where for almost a decade she worked across both Product Creation and Brand Design — ranging from footwear and apparel graphic design; to creating Nike Basketball campaigns for legendary athletes LeBron James and Kobe Bryant; and designing Tier 1 product launches and innovation summits for Nike Women and the Rio Olympics. After Nike, Kristen went on to lead Mountain Dew and Aquafina brands at the PepsiCo Design and Innovation Center in NYC, where she drove full global rebrands, new product launches, and 360-degree brand systems.

In 2019, Kristen founded MLTI NYC, unknowingly joining the 0.1% of creative agencies founded by women. She is known for creating work that is bold, aspirational, culturally relevant, and emotionally resonant. She has built a best-in-class team all over the globe through her disruptive, nimble, and collaborative business model. She and her work have been featured in Forbes, Creative Boom, Business Insider, PRINT and more.

Inspired to share lessons from her entrepreneurial and creative journey, Kristen has created The Elevated Creative, a platform and art book exploring the intersection of creativity, entrepreneurship, and mindfulness.

Kristen lives and works in Mexico City and New York City. When not working, she’s running, writing, learning Spanish, living vicariously through her cute and curious Australian Shepherd, and exploring food, art and design scenes in CDMX, NYC, and beyond.
