Kristen was encouraged, like her fellow students, to plan an enriching "summer experience", either domestically or abroad, and be prepared to share the adventure with the group of Park Scholars on returning to NC State University for their sophomore year.<P>Kristen had researched and planned a summer filled with life experiences in a big city, San Francisco, where she would work, live on her own, and take photography courses at the University of California at Berkeley to compliment her design major. <P>Departing for San Francisco on her 18th birthday, June 1, 1997, she found employment Monday through Friday from 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM at Spinelli's Coffee Shop in the financial district of downtown San Francisco. <P>Kristen had just started a second job on weekends at the Cafe Museo at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. <P>She was planning to start class at Berkeley on June 24, 1997. The day before, June 23, 1997, Kristen left work after her shift at Spinelli's, and completely disappeared without a trace. The case remains unsolved, but the determination of all of us to find the answers we need remains intact.<P>If you have seen Kristen or have any information:<BR>Please immediately call the Oakland Police Dept. at (510) 238-3641, <BR>Anonymous Tips at (800)VANISHED, or anyone listed:<BR>Sgt.
