Meet the Team Behind Haven
Kristin Stockdale, the long-time Haven owner, is the creative force behind Stockdale Design. Stockdale Design started as an interior design shop and, as the business evolved, Kristin soon realized that her passion was in special events.
The real transition came in 2012 when she co-founded the Haven Conference; an energetic, fun, and inspiring DIY & design influencer conference that has now evolved into the leading creator conference in the space.Ā Inspired by Havenās success, In 2017, Stockdale Design founded WORKBENCHcon, an intense DIY maker conference for creators with toolbelts and big dreams.
Kristin loves what she does, sharing her passion for events with her clients. Specializing in conference management, design, and nonprofit events, she continues to grow and inspire those around her. Seeing people transforming fills her soul, seeing so many lives changed by the doors that open at in person events and conferences, fuels her to cultivate her community.Ā
More personally, she values learning different cultures through traveling and eating. You may also find her, at any given moment, gardening or creating a mean hand-crafted cocktail. Cheers!
