Kristin was born in a small coastal village in the north of Sweden. Her parents were dairy farmers and Kristin loved to help out on the farm. In her youth Kristin played soccer, had horses and danced modern jazz. She met her husband in high school and after graduation they moved to the south of Sweden where her husband played ice hockey. Kristin majored in Media and Communication at the University of Halmstad.
From a young age Kristin has loved to be on stage and she took every chance to be in school plays or music performances. The village where she grew up had a People's House (like a Community Center). There Kristin and her friends got the chance to do stage plays, short films, and music shows.
When Kristin was 25 she met director Mats Helge Olsson. In Sweden Mats Helge has a cult status among filmmakers for directing action movies. For 8 years Mats Helge mentored Kristin in everything about filmmaking and they made the comedy indie film Peggy. On that project Kristin got the chance to be both in front of and behind the camera.
In 2022 Kristin moved with her husband and 1 year old daughter to Austin, Texas. Here she is continuing her filmmaking skills, and she's studying Film Acting with Juilliard trained movie actress Mona Lee Fultz at Britelites Acting Studio.
