Strength Story: Catalyst

The Strength of Catalyst

For Christin, her strength lies in igniting ideas and rallying people to bring them to life. From launching a fitness-focused summer camp business to leading a regional business accelerator, she thrives in fast-paced, community-driven environments. She mobilizes resources, connects people, and inspires belief—helping underrepresented entrepreneurs turn sparks of inspiration into tangible ventures. For her, being a Catalyst isn’t just about starting projects; it’s about creating momentum, fostering belonging, and showing others what’s possible when community and vision come together.
