Hello! My name is Kristen Polston. I have spent the last 21 years living just north of Minneapolis raising my family and teaching. Prior to moving to the Northwoods, I was a Library/Technology Specialist at a PK-8 school. I am excited to be in the Hayward area and living closer to my parents.

I have always wanted to work in a higher education setting. As a lifelong learner, supporting the choice of anyone pursuing further education and improving their lives is a passion of mine.

I love to read, play games, and kayak.
