Member Success Story

"I think one day we will find out that Kristine is actually more than one person, perhaps borrowed from alternate universes with similar timelines, because I still don't understand how one person can be so much to so many people! Kristine is my friend and my mentor, she 'gets' me, and she sees what I am capable of much more than I can see in myself. I used to dream of having an art career, and now I'm finally having one." — Monica Marks
