She has a passion for home improvement, textiles and design and has personally evaluated more than 70 vacuums, 50 towels and more bedding than she can count. When she's not testing products, Kristin interviews hospitality experts about their favorite home scents and cleaning hacks, chefs about the kitchen tools they can't live without, and interior and landscape designers about furniture, lighting and outdoor spaces. Her 15-plus years of experience include product testing and service journalism work for Today, NBC, HBO, Glamour, Self, Women's Health, Cosmopolitan, Real Simple and Better Homes & Gardens, as well as major home brands.
