Our Story
We see the passion and enthusiasm of entrepreneurs and nonprofit leaders when they talk about their vision and the impact of their services or products in their communities. We launched Olive&Root Communications to help them translate that same vision-casting enthusiasm into written form. We love seeing the connections formed through strong, people-first messaging and the ways story brings people together.
Meet Our Founder, Kristyn
Growing up, founder Kristyn DeNooyer would handwrite short stories on notebook paper and share them with her friends every week. She now holds a B.S. in English and Nonprofit Communications from Kuyper College, and brings five years of experience as a freelance Communications Specialist.
Kristyn is also a speaker, avid book reviewer, and forthcoming author. When not putting pen to paper, she can be found hosting dinner parties, frequenting local businesses, and pursuing her Masters of Divinity.
