As an international model, Kristine has lived and worked across the globe for over three decades, but her most meaningful journey began when she chose to transform her deepest wounds into a mission of healing. After surviving parental suicide and personal trauma, Kristine found her voice not by hiding her story, but by teaching others how she transformed her own life.

Kristine is founder of The Amuse Project — a platform supporting those impacted by suicide trauma and the loved ones who live alongside them. Through her work, she creates space and honest spaces where people can face grief, reclaim resilience, and rediscover peace. Her approach weaves together practical tools and faith, offering a reminder that even in brokenness, there can be beauty, purpose, and new beginnings.

She is currently writing a memoir that interlaces personal narrative with psychological insight, as well as developing two program books — one for adults and one for children — to guide other toward healing, through her Life’s Pie for Peace framework. Informed by decades of study and work with leading experts in mental health and personal transformation, Kristine blends vulnerability, wisdom, and resilience to help audiences transform pain and purpose.

More than a storyteller, Kristine is a motivational speaker — inviting others to step out of silence, connect with their true selves, and believe that their story, too, can become a source of hope.

BUILDING SAFE SPACES

Through her work, Kristine shows that safe space begins when you stop performing, start listening inward, and allow your story to breathe. Kristine’s approach stems from raw honesty that turns into strength, and silence becomes voice.

Her vision is simple yet powerful: a world where vulnerability is strength, and where every suicide trauma survivor knows that they are not alone in their journey.
