My name is Kendra Kinnison, and I help people and businesses perform at their peak. I believe that when each of us comes alive with our full potential, we encourage the next person to do the same.

Life was relatively “normal” until I was 11, when my mother became seriously ill. By 14, I was personally independent. Married at 16, a mother at 18, and graduated college at 19. At 21, I earned my MBA and CPA license, and became an entrepreneur. Remarried at 24, and reached the C-Suite at 28.

Just a month shy of my 30th birthday, I opted out – walking away from multiple six figures and the “job” I’d always dreamed of. For a while, I tried hard to follow the fast track on the beaten path. Completely unhealthy and nearing burnout, I eventually realized that it didn’t match what success looked like for me.

I’m weird. Unconventional. Odd. Unusual. Whatever word you’d like. I’m not normal. And I’m good with that now.

I live in my vibrams. I eat paleo. I work at a standing desk. I never learned to cook, and I’m still deciding whether I want to. I go to bed early. I rarely watch tv. I homeschooled my daughter for a few years. I’m happiest when all I have is a backpack. I rarely let my Kindle out of arms’ reach. I ride the bus, even in Texas. I love adventure and the outdoors. I’m fascinated with words and languages. I almost never read fiction, but I’ve read every single Vince Flynn and Brad Thor novel. I believe the Bible is the best business book ever. I sometimes resemble a donkey.

My passion is working with the team at 3eWerks to change the world. Our mission is to revolutionize the way people live, and to transform the way their homes and buildings operate. We help folks save money, be green, and live better.

What else?

I write. I speak. I coach. I wear my CPA hat and help businesses through transitions. I run. I serve through Texas Business Women, KEDT, Texas A&M University – Corpus Christi, and Bay Area Fellowship.

My husband and I have a burning desire to see the world - and a house full of kids that don’t. We escape on adventures as often as we can and look forward to living out of our backpacks in a few years.

If my journey sounds familiar, I’d love to connect with you:
