A heart for service and passion for people led Kriston into a career as a REALTOR here in Williamson County. Little did she know, her career as a REALTOR would lead her on a journey that landed her back at Keller Williams Realty Round Rock, the office she started at many years ago, with the opportunity to give back all that she was offered.
The best part is, she lives her passion every day, changing lives through coaching, education, and support. As the Senior Manager at Keller Williams Realty Round Rock, Kriston works in partnership with the amazing leadership team to guide, support and assist in the growth of the lives of the Realtors® who serve the Central Texas area. She will be the first to tell you that in this career every person on your team matters. “We are living life with our KW Family. Each interaction our agents have with their clients or customers is personal and intentional. This means our agents need the best from our team. I can’t say enough that our success is because of the team of people who work behind the scenes.”
Kriston has also enjoyed the opportunities that the local Realtor® Association, Williamson County Association of REALTORS, has presented in the form of community building and service roles. Kriston is currently serving as the President on the Board of Directors for the Williamson County Association of REALTORS. Kriston is a graduate of the Texas REALTORS Leadership Program 2016 and has used the education to further her state level involvement by sitting on the Risk Reduction Committee as well as the Professional Standards Committee for Texas REALTORS as well as at the national level where she sits on the MLS and Board Jurisdiction Committee for NAR. Kriston is a vocal advocate for why our investment as REALTORS is important to homeowner advocacy as well as our career and works with our Senators and Representatives to make sure the Realtor® voice is heard.
Previous to her work in real estate, Kriston owned a high end wedding cake shop in Leander, Texas where her cakes were named the most delicious cakes in Austin by Austin Monthly.
While not originally from Texas, Kriston’s home has been here in Round Rock for the past 20 years with her amazingly supportive husband Tim, son Ryan and daughter Lily. Her family inspires her to reach for her goals and they are the purpose behind her passion. Over the years they’ve added to their family two spunky standard poodles, Sid (Obsidian) and Sully (Sullivan).
Her goal: “I want to inspire people. I want someone to look at me and say, ‘Because of you I didn’t give up.’"
