Kristen Gastaldo

I joined the Altru team in March 2012, leaving behind the late nights of the music business. For the past eight years I’ve been lucky enough to work in the music industry, managing a venue in Charlotte, NC, and then relocating to Charleston in 2007 to help reopen the Music Farm. While at the Farm, I founded the Lowcountry Artist Market, a seasonal market that features local vendors selling handmade and vintage goods. My background in event management, marketing and ticketing in the arts and cultural community led me to pursue a career with Blackbaud, as Altru’s Community Manager. I’m here to help users connect with information, each other, and to help foster our sense of community.
