Kristina is a passionate supporter of the healthcare and emotional support needs of vulnerable or isolated patient populations.

She has trained in tai chi instruction with a focus on potential health benefits and currently co-directs a tai chi and meditation program for trauma survivors. She plans to further her reach to underserved groups with integrative health approaches such as tai chi to improve individual perceptions of wellness, self-advocacy, and community capacity, all of which should positively impact population-wide health outcomes.
