Kristin Griffin-Phelps has had a long journey to the marketing world. In 2009, she graduated with her B.S. in Humanities and a minor in Writing from Maranatha Baptist University in Watertown. She worked as an editor for five years at a Christian publishing house in Chicago before moving to Wisconsin. For the next eight years, Kristin worked various jobs in both local government and corporate America. She completed graphic and web design courses at WCTC in 2015 and 2016. And in 2022, she graduated with her MBA at Mount Mary University.
In 2015, Kristin discovered she had enjoyed marketing through the design courses she was taking at Waukesha County Technical College. It was there that Kristin met Emma, where she made not just a colleague, but a lifelong friend. Throughout her eight years in Wisconsin, she became passionate about two things at work. First, creating marketing content, and second, supporting small businesses. In her own words, Kristin said, “I’m fortunate to work remotely with talented colleagues I respect while living out both those passions as a Content Creator at Paragon.”
Kristin and her husband, Matt, moved to Charlotte, NC in 2022 for a fresh start and warm weather. In her free time, she enjoys reading, hiking, traveling, drinking iced chai tea lattes, and spoiling her dog, Jackson.
