Kristin Macari

Kristin Macari

Founder

Kristin grew up in a family that was chock-full of entrepreneurs (before being an entrepreneur was cool). Surrounded by family members with the entrepreneurial spirit. Kristin always knew she was going to own her own business someday. She just didn’t know what that business would be.

With a background in marketing, Kristin spent the beginning of her career working as a marketing manager for a national home builder. Now, as a business owner and entrepreneur, Kristin’s favorite thing about running Studio Nine 13 is bringing content to life and helping other business owners find success.

Kristin credits her entrepreneurial drive to her family — the role models who showed her it’s possible to create your own dreams and always make it work.

Over her years at Studio Nine 13, Kristin has produced video content for well-known brands like Coca-Cola, U.S. Bank, Yelp, Chick-fil-A, Palo Alto Networks, Nurse Blake (and the increasingly popular nursing conference, NurseCon at Sea), and more. She also produced a film A Time for Every Purpose that can be streamed or purchased on Amazon.

Kristin recently spearheaded Studio Nine 13’s video production for a national U.S. Bank campaign, capturing the journeys of 15 inspiring small business owners across the U.S. — from L.A. to The Twin Cities — for ads featured on billboards, iHeartRadio, and news platforms.

Kristin is a true crime junkie. As a die-hard murderino (if ya know, ya know), she often listens to crime podcasts while she edits and falls asleep to Forensic Files (nothing like a few murder stories to relax the mind).

Kristin and Quinton named their business after several momentous dates… Kristin’s birthday (June 13th), Quinton’s birthday (March 13th), and their wedding anniversary (September 13th). You could say 13 is their number.
