About Kristen M. Toepfer
Kristen M. Toepfer is a consultant, speaker, and survivor. One day, she was walking the runway for Supermodels Unlimited Magazine during New York Fashion Week. The next, she suffered a massive hemorrhagic stroke, brain swelling, fell into a coma, and subsequently underwent numerous brain surgeries.

Kristen fought tirelessly to re-gain her health and now draws from her experience to help others who have undergone similar circumstances. She is an advocate for stroke victims and those with aphasia and also wants to help families and caregivers understand what those individuals are going through.

“I became a stroke and aphasia advocate because of the life changing situation that happened to me in 2018. I was in a coma and then had eight brain surgeries. I couldn't talk for two years,” said Toepfer. “It became my mission to spread awareness.”

In 2021, Kristen was nominated a Stroke Hero by the Stroke Foundation. She belongs to Supermodels Unlimited and won the Director’s Award for the Mrs. New Jersey America Pageant in 2022. She has started a podcast “From the funny to the yucky, NO holding back” and she will be launching her website, kristentoepfer.com shortly. Kristen also wrote a children’s book, entitled, “My Aunt has a Boo Boo on her Brain” which is soon to be published.

Kristen received an A.S. in Liberal Arts from Sussex County Community College. Prior to becoming a speaker, she worked for UPS for 20 year as an industrial engineer.

In her spare time Kristen enjoys hiking and outdoor activities, modeling and pageants.
