Kristin grew up around the world, but has been proud to call College Station her home since 1982. She attended Texas A&M University, and after a 15-year career in Customer Relations/Management, she made the decision to stay home and raise her son during his pre-K years. She returned to the workforce in 2007 when she and Jeff formed Plant People, LLC. Kristin will be your first and ongoing point of contact and manages the company’s daily operations.
