Hidden Gems: Meet Kristin Chucci of Evermore Letters Inc

Today we’d like to introduce you to Kristin Chucci.

Hi Kristin, please kick things off for us with an introduction to yourself and your story.
I grew up in a small town in West Virginia, and from a pretty young age, I knew I wanted to see what else was out there. I was curious about the world, different cultures, and all the possibilities that existed beyond the place I called home.

Joining the U.S. Air Force was one of my first big leaps into the unknown, and it completely changed the trajectory of my life. Since then, I’ve traveled to more than 50 countries, lived abroad, and built a career that’s been anything but traditional.

I’ve worked in communications, explored creative projects, and pursued entrepreneurial ideas, often finding myself in industries or situations I never would have predicted. I’ve never been someone who felt I had to follow one specific path. If something interests me or I believe in an idea, I’m usually willing to take a chance and figure things out along the way.

I think living in different parts of the world has also shaped how I see people and relationships. No matter where you go, how different the cultures may be, or what language people speak, there are certain things that connect all of us. We want to be loved, understood, remembered, and to know that our lives meant something to the people around us.

That perspective became especially meaningful when my grandmother began experiencing dementia. Watching her go through that made me think differently about time, memory, and the things we sometimes leave unsaid. Around that same period, I became more interested in how we prepare for the end of life, particularly the emotional side that often gets overlooked.

Those experiences eventually led me to found Evermore Letters.

Looking back, I can see how so many seemingly unrelated chapters of my life brought me here. My background in communications taught me the power of words and storytelling. Traveling taught me the importance of human connection. And entrepreneurship has taught me that sometimes the ideas worth pursuing are the ones that push you furthest outside your comfort zone.

I certainly didn’t grow up imagining I’d one day start a company in the end-of-life space, but I’ve always wanted to build something meaningful and challenge the way people think about things.

If there’s one common thread throughout my journey, it’s that I’ve never wanted to look back and wonder what might have happened if I’d been brave enough to try.

I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
Absolutely not! And I think that’s true of both my personal and professional life.

I sometimes look back at my life and think about how different things could have been. In my twenties, I experienced homelessness after leaving an abusive relationship. I’ve struggled with depression and gone through periods when I genuinely couldn’t imagine what my future might look like.

There was a time in my life when I didn’t think I’d make it to the next chapter. And now, here I am, building a company around something I believe could make a meaningful difference in people’s lives.

That perspective has changed the way I approach challenges. I’ve learned that life can look completely different from what you imagined, and that sometimes you have to start over without knowing where you’ll end up.

Starting Evermore Letters brought its own set of challenges. I had no technical background, so I spent four months learning to code just to understand how to build the platform and communicate with engineers. There were moments when I felt completely out of my depth, but I knew that if I wanted to bring this idea to life, I had to be willing to learn.

I also had to learn to trust my instincts. I received advice from experienced tech founders to charge more and pursue subscription models, but I wanted to build something affordable and accessible. I made the decision to self-fund Evermore and stay true to that vision, even when it wasn’t necessarily the easiest business decision.

And now that we’re live, the challenges haven’t stopped. They’ve just changed. I’m learning how to grow a business, reach new audiences, and introduce people to a concept that can be emotional and uncomfortable to think about.

But I think the biggest lesson throughout my life has been that you don’t have to have everything figured out to keep moving forward.

I’m proud of building Evermore Letters, but I’m also proud of the life I’ve built along the way. There was a time when I couldn’t see a future for myself. Today, I’m creating something I hope will have an impact long after I’m gone.

That’s something I never could have imagined all those years ago.

Great, so let’s talk business. Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
Evermore Letters was built around a simple idea: What if the people we love could still hear from us after we’re gone?

We’re a private platform where people can write letters and record personal videos that are securely stored and delivered to their loved ones after they pass away.

Imagine receiving a letter from your mom on your wedding day, hearing your dad’s voice when you need encouragement, or watching a video from someone you miss reminding you how much they love you. That’s what we’re helping people leave behind.

What makes Evermore special is that we’re making this experience simple, affordable, and accessible to anyone, regardless of age. You don’t need to be sick or nearing the end of your life. You just need someone you love. And because life and relationships change, you can edit and update your messages as often as you’d like.

We’ve experienced exciting growth since launching, largely through referrals and social media, which tells me this is something people genuinely connect with.

What I’m most proud of is that we’re taking a subject people often associate with sadness and turning it into something beautiful. My vision is to make Evermore Letters a household name and a natural part of how we care for the people we love.

Because someday, the most meaningful gift you leave someone might simply be your words.

So maybe we end on discussing what matters most to you and why?
What matters most to me is living a meaningful life, staying curious, and always being open to learning, growing, and experiencing something new. I never want to stop challenging myself or discovering what else life has to offer.

Equally important is knowing that I’ve made a positive impact on others. To me, success isn’t just about what I accomplish while I’m here, but what continues to matter after I’m gone. Knowing I’ve built something that can continue bringing love, comfort, and connection to people long after my lifetime is an incredibly meaningful legacy to leave behind.
