In Maine, Kristina reported on a wide variety of topics, including Maine's opioid epidemic, an electric company billing crisis, and the corrupt international business dealings of a local ski mountain. Her reporting on Portland's Unsolved Homicides earned her a Maine Association of Broadcasters award for Enterprise Journalism.
