About

I'm Kristi. A systems navigator who excels in creating order, cutting through complexity, and using modern tools to make things work.

Foundation

I started with ChatGPT in 2023 while navigating a high-stakes family court appeal. The appeal was successful largely due to the research and writing capabilities of this tool, combined with my own aptitude and discretion in using it.

Tools and Opportunities

That experience taught me to see AI and modern tools for exactly what they are: tools and opportunities. Now I work across several at once, optimizing each for the task at hand. I've used them to secure funding, build websites, support grant applications, run a hobby farm from scratch, and help others navigate systems that felt out of reach.

Through word of mouth, people started reaching out for support navigating their own processes. That's what led me to start Nuthatch North.

To deepen my understanding, I completed a micro-certificate in artificial intelligence from UBC, with a focus on its capabilities, limitations, and responsible use.

How I Work

I work deliberately and with a clear view of the bigger picture. Bureaucracy, process, and opaque systems are a fact of life, and these tools can help us find the clearest path forward.
