Working with Kristin is an enormous pleasure!  The programs we ran together garnered rave reviews, and helped our members think about storytelling at their sites in new ways.  I saw firsthand how their storytelling came to life over the course of each day's workshop.  I can't wait to work with her again to bring these important skills to museums across our state.
