Trista Lynn

Trista had her first official job at just twelve years old and has built a wide range of experience since then. She has worked in fast food, both on crew and in management, before serving as a certified nurse’s assistant through most of college. In her final year, she became a Health Advocate for Mountain States Early Head Start through AmeriCorps. Trista graduated in 2013 with a bachelor’s degree in elementary education and became a certified elementary teacher. She taught kindergarten for several years before moving on to fourth grade, where she remained until stepping away from teaching due to health challenges. Although she deeply loved her time in the classroom, Trista chose to pursue a new path—one that ultimately led her here.

Trista loves spending time with her small but mighty family, especially her mom and brother, who are also her best friends. She enjoys reading—particularly thrillers and historical fiction—and finds joy in hobby crafts like cross-stitching and painting. A true animal lover (with the exception of spiders), Trista especially enjoys documentaries that highlight unique and lesser-known creatures. At home, her dog, Denver, and her cat, Tarot, hold a very special place in her heart.
