Kristi Carle serves as Finance Manager for Future Generations University, bringing a steady, society centered approach to financial stewardship grounded in lived experience, systems thinking, and deep community connection.

Kristi has built her career through hands-on leadership across nonprofit, healthcare, and community based environments working where complexity, constraint, and responsibility intersect. She is known for her ability to hold complicated financial systems without panic, ask questions others avoid and translate financial realities into clarity that reduces risk, confusion, and reactivity.

Rooted in Grant County, West Virginia, Kristi approaches finance not as abstraction, but as responsibility to people, places and future generations. As a mother and a systems thinker, she brings a human aligned perspective to financial decision making with particular attention to sustainability, transparency and trust. 

Kristi believes financial systems should be understandable, ethical, and durable. Strong enough to support mission driven work while helping people stay informed, respected, and secure. She is proud to contribute her work to FGU and the communities it serves.
