The biggest reason we have for making Montana our home is... the trout: where there are trout, there are thriving streams and mountains and a rich, healthy network of life. If I could change something about myself it would be... Nothing. Childbirth and motherhood have brought me to my knees in terms of appreciating my health and my capacities. My father was right when he said... do what you love and the rest will follow. The last time I surprised myself... I fell in love with a cat. Everyone knows that I am a staunch environmentalist. No one knows that I love to... listen to classic rock really loud, preferably while dancing in my kitchen. was right when he said...do what you love and the rest will follow. My father When I was ten I wanted to... grow up to be detective's secretary. The most influential book of my life... a blank journal – the best gift ever for a creative child. When I find time to relax... I drink a cup of tea and get out into the woods, either alone or in the company of two or four-legged friends. The best advertisement I've ever done... was one congratulating Staples, who, after being the target of a hard-hitting campaign by ForestEthics, announced a new, game- changing environmental policy; the ad still hangs in Staples' headquarters—and our office—more than a decade later. "Impossible?" When I hear that word I... get really excited. More than anything I want... my kids to grow up feeling loved and accepted for exactly who they are. When I am really angry I... go for a really long walk — and mutter. If someone described me in three words... she would probably say: creative, spunky, passionate. Change is... always coming; the challenge, as Gandhi said, is how to be the change we wish to see in the world. Thanks, Kristi! UM ADMIS- SIONS www.distinctlymontana.com 87
