A self-proclaimed dreamer, Kristyn moved to Colorado Springs five years ago with her family, high hopes of an exciting writing career, and a passion to influence lives and witness dramatic change for the kingdom of God. She’s a junior at University of Colorado studying English and applied communication. She loves writing, music, piano, basketball, and motivating youth.
