Brand Photos for an Executive and Leadership Coach, Corporate Trainer/Facilitator, and Speaker Kristen Brun
Coming to me to website and speaker headshots, Kristen Brun and I discussed her utilizing her brand colors to incorporate into her personal brand shoot so all her photos would be on brand. As you’ll see from her bio information below, she is super funny and I had a blast photographing her. We used a variety of locations at The Sunlight Space (a studio in Los Altos that I love) that would be on-brand for her.
Kristen is an executive and leadership coach and corporate trainer/facilitator at Emboldify who previously spent 15 years leading teams in advertising tech and marketing at companies ranging from early-stage startups to Fortune 100. Today she helps tech leaders advance their careers, make better decisions, execute change effectively, develop innovative solutions, and successfully engage their teams.
She is the founder and CEO of Emboldify, a leadership development company that aims to empower the kind of leaders the world needs more of with the power of improv. She created the AdLib Leader™ model, a proprietary framework that applies the benefits of improvisational theatre to the workplace.
As an ICF-credentialed coach (considered the gold standard) as well as a Board Certified Coach, Kristen has a Master’s degree in Management, Strategy and Leadership from Michigan State University. She also has an undergraduate business degree from the University of Southern California. She is a certified practitioner with the Applied Improvisation Network and a Certified Consultant for the Big Five Workplace assessments.
You can regularly find her performing in the San Francisco-based improv group Required Taste at theaters and festivals across the country.
