Kristin Ihnchak

Kristin leads Greenprint’s practice operations, coordinating across engineering, strategic advising, landscape architecture and planning with a focus on integrated, high-impact delivery. She sets and stewards project management best practices across all four disciplines and serves on the management team, bringing an integrative perspective shaped by nearly 20 years as an urban planner working at regional, county, municipal and site scales.

Kristin also brings deep expertise in climate resilience, sustainability planning, capacity building, and plan implementation to Greenprint’s planning and strategic advising work. She excels at bridging community perspectives with technical analysis — a skill honed through a decade at Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning (CMAP) and four years at a Chicago-based urban design consultancy. Kristin holds a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science and Metropolitan Studies from Lake Forest College and a Master of Urban Planning and Policy from the University of Illinois at Chicago.
