Kristi Killpack
Hello friends! I’m Kristi. I’m a lucky transplant to Tennessee, heralding from a small farming community in southeastern Idaho. We moved to the Knoxville area in 2022 looking for a new adventure, and we’re not disappointed. I am a work from home mom to four littles. My family enjoys spending time together outdoors, sports, friends, and food. In the moments when I choose to ignore my cleaning (i.e. my free time), I enjoy making bread and cakes and finding grocery deals. You can follow along with my instagram adventures @kristikillpackwrites.
