Kristina Adduci, Founder, CEO, House of Puff
Kristina Lopez Adduci is the founder and CEO of House of Puff as well as a serial entrepreneur.
In 2015, Kristina founded Art Zealous, an online art zine dedicated to bringing the latest art exhibitions, daily news, developments from galleries, museums, and events to the next generation of art collectors. She currently serves as Editor-at-Large for the publication.
After personally experiencing the medical benefits of cannabis, Kristina conceived House of Puff. Her goal was to create the elevated cannabis accessories she wanted for herself. Leveraging her art-world contacts, she developed the company’s MVP—the Lit Kit and received significant media attention. Shortly thereafter, Kristina was confined to bed rest with twins. Undaunted, she continued at the helm of Art Zealous while refining the House of Puff brand. After the birth of her daughters, she decided to take the company to the next level. In late 2019, she test-marketed new products and brought on Holly Hager as a partner.
Kristina has curated art for Workville in NYC. She’s also a member of the Soho House community and has previously served on the Whitney Museum Contemporary Board, the Guggenheim Acquisitions Council, and helped form the Young Patrons group for the American Folk Art Museum, on which she served for four years. While working at The Michael J. Fox Foundation, she co-chaired their Young Professionals group.
As a Latina, Kristina is now a member of the Minority Cannabis Business Association, the Drug Policy Alliance, and NORML.
She graduated from the University of Scranton with a degree in political science, and went on to earn her master’s degree from William Paterson in public policy and international affairs.
Kristina currently lives in DUMBO, Brooklyn with her husband and twin girls.
