About Krista

Life has been full of big changes and exciting growth—some planned, some a little more adventurous! I got married, packed up and moved from Texas to Wyoming, and have been crossing incredible hikes off my bucket list (while trying not to get lost). At the same time, I’ve been pushing forward in my career, earning a promotion, and helping top talent connect with outstanding companies nationwide. Growth, whether personal or professional, has been the theme, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Recruiting isn’t just about filling roles—it’s about building relationships, understanding goals, and finding the right fit for both companies and candidates. As an Executive Recruiter at Joseph Chris Partners, a Forbes-recognized executive recruiting firm, I specialize in residential, commercial, civil, senior living, and active adult construction recruitment. Whether you're a company searching for top talent or a professional ready for your next big career move, I’m here to help make the process smooth, successful, and maybe even a little fun.

I’ve always been passionate about learning new skills and industries, which is why I love working in the ever-evolving world of construction recruiting. Every day brings a new challenge, a new conversation, and another opportunity to help businesses grow and professionals thrive. Recently, I’ve also stepped into the world of digital marketing strategies, helping to enhance how we connect with top-tier talent.

At the end of the day, I love what I do because it’s all about people. If you're hiring, exploring new career opportunities, or just want to chat about the construction industry (or share your best hiking recommendations), let’s connect!

    "Krista was easy to communicate with. Most recruiters give off an exhausting vibe and in 10 years I haven’t given one the time of day. Maybe it was the perfect storm but her reaching out to me caught my attention and she was friendly and genuine. She gave just enough information to keep me engaged and although the deal didn’t go through as expected she handled the situation professionally and it propelled me in a direction I had not previously planned for. My experience with her ultimately resulted in my current job where I am a 32 year old female CFO of a multi-million dollar company. I attribute a lot of this to knowing my worth and evaluating my career goals through my experience with Krista."

    "Krista is absolutely amazing! She worked so hard on my behalf during the entire interview process and still checks in on me to this day. Anytime I had questions, she was quick to respond and I’m beyond grateful for her support and kindness. Transitioning to a new job can be daunting and thanks to Krista, the process was seamless and rewarding!"
