Her mother, Angelica Maldonado, is Spanish-Italian, while her father, Michael Cisneros, is Mexican. She is a National Hispanic Scholar and was a sophomore Music Theater major at The University of Oklahoma before joining Pentatonix. She developed her vocal and performance skills during her eight years as a touring member at Theatre Arlington where she’d learned to sing eight-part harmonies.

She began her classical training during high school and was a member of the Texas All State Choir for three years. As a four-year show choir member and dance captain, Kirstin held numerous roles in local stage productions, performing at shows around the Metroplex, including Casa Manana and Bass Hall."
