Kristin A. Dearth

I was born and raised in New Mexico. My family’s business is in raising and showing Arabian horses; I competed and won National Arabian Horse Show Championships until I started playing basketball in college. I started my basketball career at Seattle University, and ended my career at the University of Nevada, Reno, where I got my undergraduate degree. I graduated cum laude from the University of New Mexico School of Law and received my J.D. in 2023. In my free time, I enjoy hiking, exploring the outdoors, and spending time with my dogs.
