Program Analyst
AK- ARPA Program and Maritime Festival Coordinator
Kirstie is a Program Assistant at JEDC focusing on the ARPA grant program and the Maritime Festival. She was born and raised on the Canadian Prairies but moved west shortly after graduating college seeking wilderness and adventure. She worked for 15 years as a fisheries technician on a transboundary salmon river where she met the love of her life working on the same project. Kirstie and her husband, along with their dog Skillet, live just outside of Juneau where she takes working "remotely" to the next level! She enjoys hiking, fishing, knitting, and refuses to give up on gardening in SE Alaska.
