About the Speaker

Kristi Govertsen is “The Workshop Nerd,” and is passionate about helping people create their own workshops so they can share their unique message with the world. Kristi began teaching and curriculum-building in 1997 when she found herself taking a job in a one-room schoolhouse in Alaska. Alongside two other teachers, she worked with thirty K-12 children whose ages ranged from 5 to 18 years old. With the responsibility of seven different subjects: arithmetic, geography, English, algebra, history, photography, government & civics, and marine biology and no formal curriculum to work from, Kristi was thrown into the deep end of the pool of curriculum and instructional design. She was hooked!

Kristi has degrees in philosophy, mathematics, with a Masters of Science in Teaching. She is a sought after international speaker and trainer, and consultant. Additionally she has authored two books:

  • GO: Grounded Optimism—The Secret Formula to Creating Momentum, Finding the Meaning of Life, and Receiving Enlightenment from a Chocolate Chip Cookie
  • Awesomeness in Motion (AIM)

Kristi lives in Portland, Oregon where in her spare time she loves running, karaoke, and being an active Rotarian and Toastmaster.
