In honor of Mother’s Day month, we wanted to recognize one of our super moms and patients! Introducing, Kristin! At the age of 8, Kristin fell in love with bowling while living in Tokyo. Her dad was transferred there for work. Since then, Kristin has been unstoppable chasing her passion! From winning titles in local junior events and leagues, Kristin soon began a successful collegiate career bowling at Ohio State University. Kristin became one of Ohio State’s most decorated players. In four years of competition, Kristin was a three-time 1st Team All American selection by the National Collegiate Bowling Coaches Association.
Kristin briefly bowled on the Ladies Professional Bowlers Tour, with a high finish of 16th in Baltimore. The highlight of her tour experience was a 299 game. Kristin brought her talents to the Chicagoland, Illinois area. Kristin won back to back state USBC Women’s doubles titles in 2015 and 2016. Bowled a 300 game in 2017, and recently won the scratch all events title in 2021. Other accomplishments in Illinois include being named 2010 Chicago Female Bowler of the Year, 2016 Queens Champion, 5 state titles in Illinois & nomination into the Illinois Hall of Fame. She has also bowled the highest score possible in bowling, a 300! Krisitn loves that she is able to follow her dream by winning, making lifelong relationships and earning money!
Kristin is the mom of twins, Evan & Elizabeth! They are also patients of Grant Orthodontics! Such a wonderful family! Kristin shared that some of favorites things about being a mom include spending time with her kids, teaching them life’s lessons along the way, and watching them work hard and excel at things they love and do!
Happy Mother’s Day to all the Mama’s & mother figures out there!
