About Kristi

President

Kristi Faulkner

As an entrepreneur and female founder, Kristi has conceived, planned and launched four companies focused on women consumers and women brands, including a successful yoga studio and the only full-service integrated branding and marketing agency for women, by women: Womenkind.

A creative ad agency that is also a brand strategy firm, too.

Kristi has built a career advising clients who need and want to better reach, engage, and motivate women through enhanced marketing messages, product innovation, and organizational evolution. Prior to shifting her focus to marketing towards women, Kristi was a creative director at many of the top agencies on Madison Avenue. She has written and produced award-winning campaigns and content for blue chip clients nationally and globally. Kristi has expertise in marketing to women, including brand stewardship, uncovering consumer insights, and activating women through effective brand awareness strategy, top female influencers, and brand repositioning. Kristi has written for or been featured in numerous business publications including AdAge Forbes, Inc. and Wall St. Journal.
