Kristi's Story
Life
Hi All. After leaving Hersey my freshman year (in 1972) I eventually went to work for a transportation union as a secretary, got my own apartment ( at 16) and went to school at night. In 1978 I moved to AZ. to go to Prescott College. I also went to the University of Arizona. I got my BS in Conservation Biology. After 14 years in AZ, in Prescott and Tucson I spent a year in San Diego,CA working at the San Diego Zoo and rehabilitating wounded wildlife. I then moved to upstate NY (Woodstock) and worked for an Environmental Consulting firm. I spent 5 years in NY and then moved to Santa Fe, NM. I worked for The Nature Conservancy of New Mexico as their Conservation Biologist for 10 years. Twelve years ago I moved to Boise, ID. I am now a Chocolatier and opened up my own chocolate...Expand for more
shop . I attended the American Culinary Institute in NY. It was time for a new chapter in my life and I love to cook and of course love chocolate, so it seemed like a good thing to do, so far so good! The name of my shop is The Chocolat Bar (no e in Chocolate). I have two awesome sons ages 26 and 24 and two wonderful step-daughters ages 34 and 35 and yikes- a grandson! Life has had it's share of ups and downs, but I've weathered it all so far and intend to continue in that vain. I hope any of you that might remember me in my brief attendance at Hersey are all well. Please email me and let me know how you are and what your lives have been like. I will post some photo's soon after this holiday season which is crazy for a chocolate shop! Please say Hi. I would love to hear from you!
