As a scholar, Dr. Bromley has conducted important research pertaining to creating more interactive and person-centered educational environments, wherein individuals experience whole-person learning outcomes as they grow through cognitive, emotional, and experiential means, develop greater self-discipline, and become more fully-functioning persons.

In January 2016, Dr. Bromley suffered a severe break to her left-arm humerus bone, which likewise involved the crushing of her left-arm radial nerve. The nerve was damaged to the point that Kristen completely lost the use of many of the muscles in her left arm and hand. Despite a very grim prognosis, which suggested that in a best case scenario she would regain a very small percentage of the function of her left arm and hand, Dr. Bromley works as a musician and guitarist today. At the time of her injury, Kristen was given a special priesthood blessing wherein God promised her that in time, because of her faith, she would experience a complete recovery. Truly, this miraculous promise has become a reality. After several months of patience and waiting, she slowly began regaining the ability to move her wrist and fingers. Then, weeks later she was able to start gradually developing her ability to play the guitar again. In November of 2018, Dr. Bromley recorded a debut album called Simply Miraculous (released June 2019), as a celebration of her miraculous return to professional guitar playing, and she has continued to record and release additional albums since.
Dr. Bromley loves life, is deeply religious, and truly believes in the awesome power music has to enlighten and invigorate the soul. She has devoted her career to enriching, uplifting, edifying, and inspiring lives through the education, performance, composition, recording, and publishing of music.
