Verified Outcomes & Executive Evidence
Selected sources behind the work.
Published outcomes, internal measures and independent recommendations each tell a different part of the story. The source notes below give the context.
01 / Southern Technical College
Published employment outcomes.
These are Brandon campus results from Southern Technical College’s published ACCSC reports during Krista’s Career Services leadership. They show the campus outcome, not a result attributed to one person.
Medical Assisting
2025 Student Achievement report
Reporting cohort: Jan–Dec 2023
HVAC
2024 Student Achievement report
Reporting cohort: Jan–Dec 2022
Veterinary Assisting
2022 Student Achievement report
Reporting cohort: Jan–Dec 2020
Southern Technical College employed Krista as Director of Career Services from March 2020 through May 2026. Methodologies and cohort windows differ by report; the linked PDFs control. Internal operational measures in her career records include HVAC placement improving from 36% to 86%, Medical Assistant placement of 95% in 2025 and placement above 75% across multiple years. These internal STC measures use different reporting periods and student groups from the published ACCSC cohorts above.

04 / Cross-Check
Where the published results come from.
STC publishes the Student Achievement reports. Accreditation and state records add institutional context.
Southern Technical College
Publishes the Student Achievement reports containing the 94%, 85% and 86% employment outcomes.
Consumer information ↗ACCSC
Provides the accreditation and student-achievement disclosure framework under which the reports are published.
Accreditation disclosure ↗Florida CIE
Corroborates the Brandon campus and identifies ACCSC as accreditor. CIE is not the source of the three percentages.
School record ↗05 / Strategy Work
Decision-ready strategy before execution.
These prospective assessments show how Krista tests an opportunity, separates evidence from assumption and turns findings into practical decisions. They are work samples, not client engagements.
Executive Evaluation: WIND
During an executive recruitment process, Krista assessed market position, digital visibility, revenue opportunities, leadership continuity and operating risks. The excerpt shows her analysis and priorities.
Prospective executive assessment. Original retained privately. No payment, adoption, implementation or results are represented.
Anonymized Skilled-Trades Workforce Venture: Evidence-First Development
Before any engagement, Krista built a diligence framework to test employer demand, governance, operating dependencies and a staged path to feasibility, pilot, scale or stop. The public excerpt is anonymized and shows the method.
Confidential pre-engagement due diligence. Identifying, legal, financial and relationship details removed. Original retained privately. No client engagement, payment, funding, adoption, launch or business results are represented.
06 / Abundance of Sunshine
The field operation is only half the business.
Abundance of Sunshine is a founder-owned home and business improvement company. Krista is Co-Founder & CEO, March 2024–Present. After hurricane damage changed the original greenhouse venture’s direction, she led the pivot. She makes the commercial and operating calls, from pricing and customer acquisition to financial oversight, contractor management and project execution.
Building the system around the field operation.
The challenge was not simply “marketing.” A capable local service business also needed a clear market identity and one connected path from discovery to inquiry, estimate, booked work, follow-up, review and referral.
A founder-funded family venture with real field capability, an original greenhouse and horticulture model, and a service direction reshaped after hurricane disruption.
Good service delivery could not carry the business by itself. Positioning, discoverability, lead handling, proposals and follow-through needed to work as one system.
Brand → website and local SEO → service positioning → content → lead intake → estimates → job tracking → reviews, referrals and commercial prospecting.
The current brand evolution; website and localized SEO architecture; service and audience positioning; Sticks and “Florida is weird” campaign concepts; intake, proposal, lead-to-job and follow-up systems.
Use the infrastructure with tighter business-development discipline: prioritize revenue-producing outreach to property managers, short-term-rental operators, churches, colleges and community organizations, then measure what moves inquiries toward booked work.
Operating value, not a results claim: the systems create a clearer, more consistent way to be found, communicate services, handle leads, present proposals, track opportunities, follow up and ask for reviews or referrals. No financial or conversion outcome is inferred.
Krista leads the commercial work and participates in field execution with the team. The business tracker separates proposals, completed project value and payments received. Customer records remain private.
07 / BCI Commercial Work
Commercial strategy connected to campaigns, channels and operating proof.
At BCI / BusinessCheckup.info, Krista built revenue and led national sales and marketing work. The examples below show integrated campaigns and media relationships, with partner materials identified by source.
BusinessCheckup.info: Commercial Role & Evidence Context
BCI career records document $865K in first-year agency revenue, personally generated from zero without an inherited book of business. Krista simultaneously developed and led five sales representatives nationally.

The materials cover automotive inventory ads, dealership feeds, search, social, email, analytics and sales support. Examples include Nissan of Bradenton, AutoNation Ford Bradenton, Conley Buick GMC and Cox Chevrolet. These names show relationship history, not endorsements or campaign results.
Partner materials add campaign context. They are not presented as Krista’s sole-authored work.
