She is passionate about the work of Girl Scouting, championing girl ambition and equipping girls and women with the confidence and know how to live life on their own terms, whether that means being leaders in their own house or the White House. Kristen’s focus is ensuring that the 110-year-old organization continually innovates to remain relevant, remove barriers to female leadership and move at the speed of girls today.

Kristen is active in her community.  She is a member of Women at the Top, Women Presidents Organization, Women’s International Forum, and serves on the National Board of Advisors for University of Arizona’s Eller College of Management and the CALS College Career Center.
