Kristie is the Yukon Cornelius of casting! She can find anyone! With over 30 years of experience in the industry, Kristie has uncovered a lot in her career. As the co-owner of a Boston-based modeling agency in the 1990’s, she provided brands with talent described as “younger, hotter and sexier” in a market that had not seen a new agency open in over 20 years. Her exploration continued when she launched Viewfinder Productions in 2004, laying the groundwork to support productions of all sizes in casting, location scouting, crew coordination and budget management. While contracting with a major toy manufacturer, Kristie realized how little diversity was being represented in the overall messaging. She partnered with several brands to look beyond the expected and find kids who truly represented the scope of their customers. HumanKind, LLC is the culmination of that empowering experience. Kristie is determined to use her creative powers for good in this industry and to work with clients that don’t just create images, but create meaningful impact, for both our communities and for our culture at large.

My maternal grandma, Georgia May, taught me everything there is to know about cooking, always with love and the values of a strong Midwest work ethic. She inspired me to move to NYC and study interior architecture. Still, it wasn't until I combined my career in design and the sweet memories of cooking with my Grandma that I decided to become a vegan chef, and Sweet Vegan was born.
