Previously, Kristin served as a Program Manager in the UCSF Research Development Office where she supported campus wide strategic initiatives and provided proposal strategy input, project management, technical writing/consulting, and template language for large, multi-investigator grant proposals.
Kristin received her B.Sc. in Environmental Studies and Ecology, Evolution, and Marine Biology at UC Santa Barbara and her Ph.D. in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, studying microbial community response to global climate change, in the lab of Dr. Jennifer B.H. Martiny at UC Irvine.
