Guest:
Design wasn’t Kris Betts' first career, but it was always her true passion. For 12 years, she thrived in the fast-paced world of TV news, building a successful career. But even amid the excitement of journalism, her heart was in home design—a love sparked by her mother, an interior designer in Dallas, who often took her along on jobs. Throughout her TV career, she renovated and designed several homes, finding more fulfillment in that creative work than on screen. Finally, she decided to leave the news industry behind and pursue her lifelong passion for design full-time in her home city of Austin, Texas.
