About
I’m Kristi Kaldre, a dynamic executive assistant and operations professional with more than 20 years of experience across premium customer service, aviation, and high-pressure coordination environments. I’ve supported senior leadership with calendar, travel, presentation preparation, and the organization of high-profile events, while also driving day-to-day B2B operations and service standards.
From managing a VIP Boeing 777 cabin operation with a large crew to coordinating complex logistics for business start-up activities and market opportunities, I’m known for staying calm under pressure, communicating clearly across cultures, and improving efficiency. I genuinely enjoy building strong working relationships, solving problems proactively, and delivering reliable results that keep operations running smoothly.
