Kristina bartended, cooked and waitressed while attending college. After graduating from UW-Eau Claire, she worked professionally for over a decade in sales and staffing.

Since that time, Kristina forged many friendships and met many wonderful pool players in the community and has been amazed at the level of talent, camaraderie and genuine care between one another.
