mountaineering achievements. She transitioned from a management
career to pursue her dream of conquering the world's highest

Sherpa, she became the world's fastest

just 92 days, rewriting mountaineering history.


Kristin holds multiple world records, including
being the fastest person, alongside Sherpa Lama, to summit all 14
peaks over 8,000 meters in 3 months and 1 day. She's also the
