Meet the Founder

Kelly Kraus

Kelly is a faith-first entrepreneur, creative visionary, and big believer in doing life on purpose.

After 15 years in education, Kelly took a leap of faith—trading lesson plans for business plans and pouring her energy into creating businesses that make life more intentional.

As a licensed financial professional, she understands the power of legacy and the kind of freedom that comes from building something of your own.

From the classroom to the coast, she built SOLMATE as a reflection of what matters most: the intentional time away that refuels us, the connection that deepens when we step out of the daily grind, and the freedom to live and work on your own terms.
