Kristin (Kris) Corkins is a Family Nurse Practitioner and a proud Texas Woman's University (TWU) alumna (Class of 2014). Her dedication to academic excellence at TWU began in 2017, when she started serving as adjunct faculty for both the master's and bachelor's programs. In January 2021, she transitioned into a full-time faculty role at the university.

In May of 2026, Kristin graduated with her Ph.D. in Educational Leadership Organization from TWU, an achievement that further fuels her passion for lifelong learning and leadership in nursing education. Clinically, she keeps her practice current by working one day a week with Crossover Healthcare, serving patients across the metroplex.
