Kristina [Kristie] Stark (she/her)
Senior Design Systems & Creative Operations Consultant
I love bringing clarity and order to visual communication.
I’ve spent 25+ years helping organizations turn scattered brand assets and inconsistent visuals into clean, cohesive systems that actually work for the teams who use them. I’m a big believer that design should make life easier, not more complicated, and I love simplifying the message and creating structure where it’s missing.
I started my career in Boston after earning my Graphic Design degree from Northeastern University (Summa Cum Laude), worked as an Art Director, and eventually launched my own studio, Stark Group. Since then, I’ve collaborated with startups, nonprofits, tech companies, and in-house marketing teams, providing hands-on design support and streamlining their brand and creative operations.
My approach is straightforward: design with intention, communicate clearly, and always keep the audience in mind. I’m at my best when solving problems, building consistency, and translating complex ideas into visuals people actually understand.
I’ve been honored with three REBRAND 100 Global Awards and have shared my experience as a speaker at Bryant University’s Women’s Summit.
If you value thoughtful design, organized systems, and a calm partner in the creative chaos, drop me a line, I’d love to work with you.
