My wild wanders all over the world led me to create a business focused on producing high-quality digital and printed marketing products with unbeatable service to my local community. With an array of experience and education to build from, I founded Wild Wanders Creations on one of my wanders, fittingly enough.

Meet the Owner

Kris grew up on a farm just outside McIntire, IA, and graduated from Riceville High School in 2015. She then went on to study AgriTech at Iowa Central Community College before transferring to Iowa State, where she graduated in 2022 with a BA in Landscape Architecture.

During and after her time at Iowa State, she worked on and managed conservation and chainsaw crews in national and state forests and parks all over the country. She paused only to pursue opportunities in Nashville, taking on marketing roles for music festivals and non-profits. Since leaving Nashville, she has continued doing freelance work for local organizations, non-profits, and events.

She is currently the Vice President and Marketing Chair for The Friends of Hawn Association, a non-profit focused on assisting with maintenance and land acquisitions at Hawn State Park, New Offenburg, MO. A result of one of her many conservation adventures out on the road and years of continued dedication to the work she put so much passion, sweat, and blood into.

Kris now resides in McIntire, IA. You can find her pitching in to help friends, area businesses, and local events whenever she can.
