Kristina Hernandez

Born and raised in Eagle, Idaho, Kristina Hernandez is a trusted member of the Riverside Financial Planning team who brings over two decades of experience to her role as an LPL Registered Administrative Associate. With a career spanning various aspects of the financial industry, Kristina has developed a deep understanding of the complex financial landscape and a passion for helping clients pursue their goals.

Kristina's journey began immediately after high school, where she started as a teller and quickly rose through the ranks to become a banker and assistant branch manager. Her success in these roles led her to transition into Commercial Lending, where she joined the portfolio management team and honed her skills in client relationship management and financial planning.

Committed to staying at the forefront of her field, Kristina has earned her SIE, Series 7, and Series 66 licenses (held through LPL Financial), solidifying her position as a knowledgeable and dedicated financial professional.

Outside of the office, Kristina values her time with loved ones and enjoys spending time outdoors. Married to her husband Jason for over 14 years, the couple shares two children, Parker and Evelyn, and two rambunctious dogs, Bella and Ace. In her free time, Kristina can be found camping, paddleboarding, or hitting the slopes with her family and friends.

For Kristina, the most rewarding part of her job is watching clients pursue their financial objectives and enjoying the fruits of their labor in retirement. Her own personal philosophy is simple: "I love seeing the light bulb go off when a client finally feels confident in their financial plan. It's an incredible feeling knowing that I played a small part in helping them get there."
