Your Trusted Retirement Partner

We take a thoughtful, coordinated approach to retirement and insurance planning by looking at the full picture, not just individual decisions. Retirement planning, insurance coverage, and long-term protection are reviewed together to ensure each piece works in alignment, rather than in isolation.

Our Approach
Let's Work Together!

Working together begins with a conversation focused on understanding your goals, concerns, and current planning situation. We take the time to learn where you are today and what you want your future to look like before discussing any options.

Your trusted partner for thoughtful insurance planning

Meet the Founder

Hi, I'm Kristin! I'm so grateful you stopped by to learn how we can work together. With over 20 years of healthcare & financial experience, I founded KM Insurance Planning to provide a more compassionate and comprehensive approach to insurance and financial protection. My career journey began working as a bank teller, then home equity, then a healthcare clinic, where I saw firsthand the importance of having the right support during life’s most challenging moments. After almost 10 years in healthcare, I transitioned into the insurance and financial industry. In 2018, I open my independent agency after one year in the industry. Eventually serving as a Broker Manager for both an insurance company and insurance brokerage, overseeing more than 500 brokers.

This "full circle" career path allows me to bridge the gap between the clinical side of healthcare and the complex strategy behind retirement and insurance planning. As an experienced insurance broker, I don't just look at the numbers; I focus on the human impact of every policy. My goal is to use my decades of expertise to build personalized financial safeguards that give my clients true peace of mind.

When I’m not helping families secure their future, I stay grounded by embracing the outdoors. You’ll usually find me hiking local trails, hanging out with my energetic five-year-old Beaglier, or enjoying paddleboarding on the water with my close friends.

Kristin is trustworthy and has a heart for helping people. I have worked professionally with her for years and she is a wealth of knowledge and committed to those she works with.

A Commitment to Your Peace of Mind

Kristin was outstanding. My schedule was so busy that I only had a Sunday at 5pm time slot available to talk with her, and Kristin made it happen! She was kind, courteous, professional, very well read and well informed. She went over so many options and distilled the main features , making it easy to make a good choice for our health insurance. She even gave us leads to apply for assistance in addition to our new plan. She provided a custom fit process and even a delightful experience. In the future, we will continue to trust Kristin’s expertise in helping us navigate the overwhelming task of sorting out affordable and reliable healthcare coverage. She made it simple and fun :)
