Kristen Orgera, Creative Planner and Marketing Specialist

Kristen Orgera is excited to join the board of My Gut Instincts, bringing her creativity and over 10 years of marketing experience to the team. Inspired by her best friend’s journey to remission from Ulcerative Colitis, under the care of Dr. Aparna Mele, Kristen witnessed firsthand the life-changing impact of proper care and wellness. Seeing her friend go from constant pain and low energy to a vibrant, healthy life inspired Kristen to support the nonprofit’s mission.

By day, Kristen works as a marketer, but in her free time, she enjoys rock climbing, practicing yoga, and exploring nature through hiking. Originally from New Jersey, she lived in Chicago for 15 years before settling in Berks County, PA, 14 years ago. When she’s not adventuring outdoors, Kristen loves spending time with her cats and her professional artist boyfriend, Robbie Pepper, appreciating the simple joys of life.
