Keynote Speaker

Kristie Salerno Kent was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in 1999 and her lifelong dream of a stage career in theater seemed out of reach. After several years of denial, Kristie decided that the word dreams may end with an M and an S but her dreams don’t end because of her MS. She is now a Singer/Songwriter/Producer and the CEO of her own production company, Whirlaway Productions, LLC. Now she combines her passion for music and the arts with her desire to help others.
