About Us

Picture
​AroundAspen.com was conceived by Kristina Niemi, a part-time Snowmass Village resident, who realized when she'd head to the mountains from her hometown of Chicago, she could not find out what was going on while she was in town.   
 
She wanted to ensure that other visitors to the valley could have one resource that has it all – dining, announcements, seasonal activities, cultural, entertainment, and more.  So she founded AroundAspen.com to help everyone find a great time in the Valley.
 
AroundAspen.com strives to provide the most up-to-date information to enhance everyone’s experience here in the Roaring Fork Valley.   If you have any updates or announcements, feel free to email us and we will do our best to get your information up on the site!
 
Enjoy!
About Kristina
Kristina’s roots in the Roaring Fork Valley started in 2004 when she moved here for a season of R&R.  After a few days in the valley, she got antsy and decided to get a job.  She accepted the Office Manager position Gwyn’s High Alpine Restaurant where she integrated herself with locals and visitors to The Valley.     Kristina moved back to The Valley in 2008 where she was the Events Manager at the Roaring Fork Club helping club members with their event needs.  

She currently resides between Snowmass Village and Chicago and works for a financial publisher selling advertising and custom solutions to clients.  In her professional career, Kristina is an advertising and marketing veteran who possesses a proven track record of increasing market share through innovative sales and marketing strategies and building and maintaining strong customer relationships.

Possessing over 30 years of experience in marketing and advertising in breadth of industries including finance and restaurant hospitality, Kristina transfers her marketing know-how into relevant business solutions and helps organizations turn ideas, aspirations and intentions into measurable results.     She is fluent in digital advertising and helps clients navigate the ever-changing digital landscape.    She doesn’t follow a “media kit mentality” for her clients because each has unique goals and needs and the key to success is bespoke solutions to fit any budget or goal.


In addition to Kristina’s professional successes, she is an avid skier, dog enthusiast, and has volunteered at numerous organizations. She is a member of the Chicago AMA Chapter, Marketing Board Member for the Financial Communications Society West, Board member at Chicago Chapter of Women In ETFs, and embraces her Finnish roots as a member of the Finnish American Chamber of Commerce Chicago chapter.
