Today, we are thrilled to welcome the visionary Kristin Hull In The Suite. As the founder of Nia Impact Capital, Kristin is a true trailblazer in gender lens investing. In 2013, she launched Nia Global Solutions, fusing activism with impact investing in the public markets. Kristin crafted Nia’s six solutions-focused investment themes, expertly weaving a gender lens into every aspect of the investment process. Her forward-thinking leadership led to the launch of the Nia Growth and Dividend portfolio in 2018 and the Nia Racial Justice portfolio in 2022, both of which have set bold new standards for inclusivity and equity in finance.In this episode, we’ll explore Kristin’s incredible journey—her dedication to empowering female leaders, advocating for racial equity audits, and the pivotal role of investors in shaping a more just and equitable economy. Kristin’s blend of financial expertise and passion for social justice has placed Nia Impact Capital at the forefront of intentional investing, driving meaningful change with purpose and impact.Before dedicating her career to conscious investing, Kristin was an educator, co-founding the North Oakland Community Charter School and serving on the founding board of the George Mark Children’s House, the first children’s hospice and palliative care center in the U.S.Kristin’s academic journey is equally impressive—she holds a Ph.D. in Urban Education from UC Berkeley, an MA from Stanford, and a BA from Tufts. She continues to influence impactful organizations like How Women Lead and GenderSmart, serving on multiple boards, including the Mosaic Project and American Rivers.But that’s not all. We also dive into Kristin’s work advocating for a racial equity audit at MetLife, her groundbreaking work on Tesla, and her experiences navigating the male-dominated asset management industry. Plus, we’ll hear about Nia’s impactful internship program, which empowers the next generation of female leaders, and her personal wellness practices like river rafting and connecting with nature.Kristin’s journey from educator to a pioneering force in finance is fueled by a deep commitment to reshaping capitalism and promoting diversity in leadership.
