Krista was born and raised in Kelowna. She grew up playing every sport the Okanagan has to offer, but eventually found success in triathlons and basketball. She was a member of the National Junior Triathlon Team, but after high school switched gears to obtain her Bachelor of Physical Education from the University of Alberta. Here she joined the starting line up and was named Captain of the U of A varsity basketball team. After graduating she travelled and worked in Australia and New Zealand but always knew she’d come back to her hometown. She fell back into the Okanagan active lifestyle, but her competitive nature needed to train for something…so she set her sights on the Penticton Ironman. After taking a 1st place finish for amateur athletes, and 9th amongst the professionals, in a time of 9:58:31, she was named Canada’s long distance amateur triathlete of the year.

Since then, she became immersed in a career with her family’s construction company. She juggled management, sales, estimating, and all the administrative work, while raising three beautiful daughters.

With her extensive knowledge of the local neighbourhoods and schools, connections with homebuilders, experience in sales and marketing along with her tenacious spirit, she later found her calling in real estate. Krista is dedicated, motivated, and pours her heart and soul into her clients. She wants all her clients to reach their goals, whether it’s purchasing their first home, adding to their investment portfolio, or selling for top dollar. Her work ethic, optimistic attitude, negotiating skills and communication ensure a 5 star experience every time. Her goal is to not just to help you buy or sell with confidence, but is to create an experience you’ll feel compelled to tell your friends and family about.

When not working, any free time is spent with her 3 girls, either coaching her daughters’ basketball, hiking with her dogs, heading up to Big White in the winter, or getting on the lake in the summer.

Krista is passionate about dogs and donates $500 from every home sale to a local animal rescue. She is also a proud sponsor of the Kelowna Chiefs Hockey team.

As an experienced agent with a proven track record, Krista understands that buying and selling is one of the biggest decisions in a client’s life and views the guidance of her clients through this process as a true privilege.
