She/her/hers

Kristiana Jordan

Director

Kristiana likes to say she’s been a communications strategist since she was a kid, when she created a PowerPoint to convince her parents to buy her a cellphone (it worked). In reality, her college studies opened her eyes to the fact that frames, stories and narratives have the power to both reflect and transform our realities. She brings this understanding to her work and is deeply invested in using her expertise to build a more just world. At Spitfire, Kristiana has led projects on topics ranging from civil rights to youth voter engagement to public health. She’s developed narrative guides on nuanced issues like abortion and tech surveillance, fought harmful narratives and disinformation with organizations like Drug Policy Alliance and AI Now, helped get out the vote during election season with the American Civil Liberties Union and Forward Montana, and currently manages a network of public health advocates through the Robert Wood Johnson Culture of Health Prize Storytelling Cohort. Although she has experience in many facets of communications, she largely focuses on narrative development, communications planning, message development, media relations and research.
