My name is Kirstin. I'm born Calgarian and was raised on an acreage outside of the city limits near Millarville. I grew up with and still love animals. I enjoy time outdoors and appreciate the beauty of the seasons and nature. Yoga is a big part of my life; I practice and teach studio classes regularly. Creative expression and self discovery is a big part of who I am. I love to write, knit, cook, read and have begun foray into drawing and sewing recently. I like to work with my hands. I have employment experience in various realms including; accounting and administrative, general labor and landscaping, house cleaning/maintenance, pet care, retail (nutrition, herbal, supplements), personal services, serving in the restaurant industry; as an entrepreneur I have offered services including meal planning and preparation, teaching workshops, and working with clients one-to-one to achieve desired results. I enjoy variety in my work and movement in all aspects of my life. I am a self-directed and flexible person. I understand that life does not always go the way we plan for it to, and I believe that one of my greatest attributes has become to go with the flow; to think on my feet and adapt to situations and circumstances as they require.

Most of my experience comes from the last 7 years working in a personal services role which includes but is not limited to meal planning and preparation tasks. Beyond that I have worked independently and have contracted to clients in various capacities including dietary meal prep (creating and executing meal plans for clients with personalized dietary needs), teaching workshops (fermenting your own foods, making healthy desserts, etc.), presenting at open house events (Light Cellar, Community Natural Foods), etc.
