Krista Walsh

Krista Walsh was a failure. At twenty years old, she had been fired three times in six months from her career as a dental assistant. As she had to re-evaluate her career path (and face unemployment), Krista moved back home with her parents to work in her family’s home heating business. Driven by the fear of failure, she studied and researched account receivable strategies and policies. Walsh became the first Canadian graduate of the International Center for Collection Professionals, which aided her when she opened the doors of her own credit and resource company “KC Collect!”.

Today Krista is a multifaceted entrepreneur, author and speaker with businesses spanning from debt collection to fitness. She has been named one of 21 Inc’s Emerging Leaders for Atlantic Canada (twice), the Eastern PEI Chamber of Commerce’s Entrepreneur of the Year, and Canada Association of Professional Speaker’s Rising Star and has developed into one of Canada’s leading young entrepreneurs.

She recently released her second book, “Stories from a Debt Collector” which became a #1 Best Seller within two weeks.
