October 2007 - Open to Discussion with the BBC's star The Apprentice Kristina Grimes From the minute Kristina Grimes hit our screens during the first episode of ‘The Apprentice’, she stood out as ‘one to watch’ and her personality, determination and business acumen quickly made her the viewers’ clear favourite to win. Kristina grew up in Ireland. At the age of 17, less than 3 weeks after successfully completing her A-levels, she gave birth to her only child, her son Graeme. Although this was a difficult time in her life, she was determined to prove that being a single mother would not prevent her from becoming a successful business woman. She had a successful career in the pharmaceutical industry, but as her son started making plans to go to University Kristina felt it was ‘Kristina’ time and this is when the idea of entering ‘The Apprentice’ took hold. Kristina proved week after week that she was the top performer, and excelled at all tasks. Not only did she stand out as a brilliant sales person and team leader, her people skills, her determination to succeed and her innate business ability shone through.
