About Kristi:

Kristi grew up right here in American Fork, Utah. She was one of six kids, the only girl among a sea of brothers, so she learned pretty quickly how to figure out what she wanted and go after it. It was the only way to survive. Kristi attended Utah Valley University for her undergraduate studies, where she earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Biology. After graduating, she spent a few years teaching science, math, and health at the secondary level before changing careers to medicine.

Kristi traded teaching school for attending school at the University of Utah School of Medicine, where she earned her Physician’s Assistant degree. Now she uses the culmination of those skills to teach patients and their families the wonder of the human body and how best to care for it.

When she’s not working or learning, Kristi can be found hanging out with her husband and four kids, camping, mountain biking, or gardening. Anything to enjoy Utah’s natural spaces. If she’s not doing that, you can find her with her headphones on, lost in a good audio book.

Parent Feedback

We’ve been going to Families First Pediatrics for almost a year and we have had a wonderful experience. Every nurse, PA, and/or doctor we’ve met has been incredibly helpful, empathetic and caring. The care is always top notch and I never feel rushed during a visit. I highly recommend this practice to anyone looking for a pediatric clinic.
