Kristin Bachochin Klein is all about high energy and superlatives. The former collegiate tennis player at the University of Tennessee-Knoxville speaks rapidly and often in terms that help define her position as the Executive Director of the Amgen Tour of California.
Enthusiastic and fond of discussing team efforts, partnerships and accomplishments, Bachochin Klein has been employed by Anschutz Entertainment Group (AEG), owner of the Amgen Tour of California, since 2004.
She assumed her current role in 2011, replacing Andrew Messick, now CEO of the World Triathlon Corporation. Last year, Bachochin Klein was also selected as an at-large representative to the board of directors of USA Cycling, the sport's governing body.
