Kirsten joined us in 2010 as our first full-time Administrative Services Manager.  She assists with in-house marketing projects and serves customers as the friendly face and voice of Brendle Group.  Her dedication to sustainability is apparent with her active volunteer history.  Since moving to Colorado in 2001, Kirsten has worked closely with The Colorado 14ers Initiative, Legacy Land Trust, The Colorado Farm Bureau, and Oshun Community Development to help preserve and protect the state she now calls home.

Kirsten holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the prestigious Maryland Institute College of Art and continues to oil paint in her free time.  When not at the easel, she can be found backpacking through the wilderness of the southwest seeking inspiration for her next work of art.
