Kristi
At 22, Kristi has more life experiences under her belt than most of us will ever know. She fled a troubled youth and became homeless and started using drugs and working in the sex trade. With help, Kristi sought treatment at various locations around B.C. When she arrived in Vancouver at age 19, the only place she could afford to live was a squalid SRO. This year she moved into the Dominion Hotel and also landed a full-time job that she loves at another government-owned hotel. In many ways wise beyond her years, at heart Kristi is still a young girl who loves her kitten and anything pink.
