Meet Chrystina

Hi, I’m Chrystina! Engineer and management consultant by day and party planner by night. The two top values in my life are community & efficiency. When those two things come together you get something that looks a little bit like this —

I’m super excited to get to know each of you. Please check out my About page to learn more about my journey, what drives me, and a completely random assortment of fun facts.
