Kristen Metz joined the staff of LaSalle Street Church in Chicago in May 2010. As the Communications & Projects Coordinator, she works to effectively provide two-way communication from the church office to the congregation and wider community by means of print and web design. Her interest in graphic design stems from the Bachelor of Fine Arts she received in 2002 from The Ohio State University. While she would prefer the limitless freedom of painting and drawing, she has wrestled and come to grips with this digital form of creating and, surprisingly, grown to enjoy it!

Kristen is originally from Toledo, Ohio but has also lived in Pennsylvania, Florida and Colorado with her husband, David, and her Australian Shepherd, Aspen.
