Kristen's Story
My name is Kristen and I am the Caseload Manager here at OM and a Senior EF Coach.
My journey began as a university student struggling to understand my own brain and feeling not smart enough, refusing help out of shame, and feeling lost about available resources. My own academic hardships, combined with my years as an educator, highlighted how many students needed support beyond what our education system could provide.
Though- I technically do not have ADHD myself (in the process of getting tested) - I am no stranger to having my fair share of executive function challenges. Having a family who struggles with ADHD gave me an intimate insight into the true barriers of life with ADHD. To no one's surprise, my partner and most of my social group also have ADHD. I am surrounded by ADHD and genuinely could not be happier!
I am a believer in empowering over enabling. I’m resourceful, adaptable and have a passion for learning. I believe that when given the necessary support, every person has the chance to be successful. With two bachelor degrees in social sciences, I have an in-depth understanding of the educational system and how to best navigate it.
I am a strong advocate for inclusive education and believe in meeting students where they are at to encourage and teach students to use tools at their disposal. I strive to create a positive, supportive, and open learning environment for my clients while empowering them to be independent and autonomous.
I am happiest in the mountains, spending my free time skiing, hiking, and biking in the beautiful mountain town she calls home.

Kristen, my coach, helped me move from a chaotic schedule to a much more satisfying and productive relationship to time and activity. Her coaching helped me with all aspects of my life: my job, my creative work, and my home. I learned strategies for organizing my time, my energy, and my space.
