Chrystal is an executive coach and facilitator with a passion for supporting individuals to work well and live well. She has worked with clients and organizations across the spectrum, from founders to emerging leaders, and in the private sector, non-profit, and public service realms.
Bringing a well of practical experience along with listening, inquiry, and multi-disciplinary knowledge, Chrystal creates a connected space where discovery, reflection, and action occur. The result is that clients feel empowered, resourced, and supported in their growth. Clients who work with her say they develop better skills to lead, navigate life transitions, handle conflict, manage stress, and come into alignment with themselves.
To those that know her, it comes as no surprise that Chrystal did her first science experiment at the age of three before she could properly pronounce the letter “r.” Her natural curiosity and love of good questions have been enduring themes, both in her previous career in forensic science and as a coach. Uncovering what lies beneath or is just beyond what’s visible is one of her superpowers that results in big unlocks and insights for clients. Clarity, bold next steps, and that sense of coming home to one’s self are often on the other side of those breakthroughs.
Coupled with her own experiences, Chrystal’s background in equity, inclusion, and belonging creates a space for folks who want to work with a coach who understands the myriad ways identity impacts one’s life and work. She can skillfully work across those dimensions and is as comfortable coaching clients who might be “the only” or one of a few, as she is with anyone.
Prior to Reboot, Chrystal spent two decades in public service. As a director, she set strategy, built and led teams and operations, and fostered peak performance in a high-stakes environment, while doing it with extraordinary care for the organization and the public.
Chrystal is certified through the International Coaching Federation and is a Core Practitioner of Presence-Based Coaching.
