After starting Maggio Multicultural Academy in the Dominican Republic in 2016, Kristi's mission became clear, to impact the lives of 1 billion youth in the next 10 years by providing an educational program based on entrepreneurship and applied learning. It has become Kristi's obsession, to make a new ecosystem that provides youth with the skills they need before graduating high school, as well as diminish generational poverty.

The content of the high school entrepreneur program comes from her interviews and relationships with some of today's top entrepreneurs and thought leaders including: JT Foxx, George Ross, Ramy El-Batrawi, Naveen Jain, Evan Carmichael, Forbes Riley, Sharon Lechter, and Sean Kanan to name a few. Kristi has been described by Naveen Jain as "a great example of someone who is humble, and someone who is so dedicated to helping young people be at their best.
