Born in North Carolina, Crystal has called Jacksonville her home for over 22 years. She is a 2018 graduate from Florida State University where she earned her degree in English Education. Crystal returned to teach at her high school alma mater, Atlantic Coast High School, and was shortly after recognized as the 2021-2022 Teacher of the Year. She was recognized for her organization, communication skills, and tenacity, but her students and colleagues would say that her ability to create meaningful relationships in and out of the classroom was her greatest talent. Crystal is motivated to bring her knowledge and skills to the table to benefit her clients and create a sense of “home”, built to last. In her off time, you can often find Crystal enjoying the beach with family and friends, spending time at BrewHound with her two dogs Fred and Alfie, or taking her bike to explore the local beaches cuisine!
