Kristina moved to Walla Walla in 2015 for the wine industry. Little did she know that she would meet her husband, get married, start a family, be a part of an amazing community of believers and call Walla Walla her home. Kristina has always believed in Jesus but it wasn't until she moved to Walla Walla that she really began to follow Jesus with passion. She was hungry for God's word and consumed as much as she could through sermons, small groups, podcasts and youtube. Looking back, she can see how much work God has done in her life and how much spiritual maturity she has gained and wants the same for others. Now, one of Kristina's favorite things to do is to share her enthusiasm for studying and teaching the bible with others.
