In Krystal's words...

What do you like most about working at Fairmont State? I am very engaged with my work at Fairmont State and thoroughly enjoy making connections between students and faculty. After almost five months here, I feel like an integral part of our team. It does feel like home. That's my favorite part of being here.

What do you like to do in your free time? Free Time!!!??? What is this phenomenon of which you speak? I have four children (ages three to fourteen). Parenting is one of the greatest joys of my life. During my free time, I like to collapse and recover.

Where are you originally from? I was born in Utah but quickly moved to Dover, Delaware where I lived until I went to college. I grew up a proud Air Force brat.

If money was no object, what would you do with it? If money was no object, I would ensure that a higher education is financially accessible for all.

What did you want to be when you were growing up? I always wanted to be a teacher growing up. I taught very many interesting lessons to my stuffed animals with my handy chalkboard.

What is an interesting or fun fact about yourself? I went to Space Camp!
