Congratulations to our neighbors at the Meridian-Kessler Neighborhood Association, who have welcomed Kristin Toner as their new Executive Director.

Kristin is a familiar face in the community — she's served as MKNA's Zone 4 representative for the past three years, so she steps into the role already knowing the neighborhood and the people in it. She also brings more than 15 years of experience in the fine arts, a background that promises a fresh, creative perspective on community building.

Strong neighborhoods depend on strong leadership, and transitions like this are a chance to celebrate both the work that's come before and the energy a new leader brings. We're excited to see where Kristin guides the association and look forward to partnering with MKNA on the shared goal we all care about: thriving, connected neighborhoods.
