Hi, I’m Krystie! 👋🏼

I’m a multi-passionate creative who taps into the power of storytelling and community to build a more vibrant and joyful world.

Julia Cameron may be the queen of change, but I'm the queen of pivots. Growing up as that kid who got called bossy, loud, and opinionated while scribbling whimsical stories at the kitchen counter, I knew deep in my soul that I was meant to help people express themselves authentically—but it took a beautiful series of twists and turns to get here.

After spending my young adult life chasing the quintessential Asian American dream, I took a chance on myself: I said goodbye to a comfortable, prestigious job in Corporate America and dove in head first to rediscover my creativity and design a more aligned and vibrant life for myself.

Now, 10+ years in, I can see how it all connected. My journey from brand strategy at creative agencies to founding Slant’d (a nonprofit publishing house for AAPIs) wasn't random—each twist taught me something essential about helping people discover their voice and create meaningful work that matters.

In this new chapter, I'm pulling from all of it—the brand consulting magic, the nonprofit leadership lessons, the storytelling expertise—to support people who are ready to step into their creative power. Because I know firsthand that our most "impractical" dreams often lead us exactly where we need to be.

As an enneagram 2w3 and ENFJ, I feel most fulfilled helping people realize their potential. Today, I joyfully serve as a creativity coach for dreamers and doers aching to reconnect with their creative essence.

When I’m not channeling my energy towards causes that move me, you’ll find me working on my debut children’s book, tending to my veggie garden, or dancing under the moonlight with friends—because the best creative work happens when we give ourselves permission to simply be.
