About Krystal
I'm a mother, a partner, and a traveler - someone who's spent a lot of long work weeks learning how much I needed to breathe. What started as quick weekend escapes turned into bigger adventures, and somewhere between the chaos of too many bags and a toddler on my hip, I found something I wasn't expecting: travel became my reset button. My way of finding quiet, clarity and connection.
That's what led me to start 3ozs Collective, a travel retail and agency company built around a simple idea - you don't need much to experience something beautiful, you just need what matters. I take the stress and guesswork out of travel, both in what you pack and how you get there.
Before 3ozs, I spent years as a Tax Analyst at the IRS, overseeing a department and working with internal and external stakeholders to bring a digital platform to life, and helping bring the program out of the red along the way. That experience taught me how to lead, how to listen and how to explain things clearly no matter who I'm talking to. If something's not landing, I'll find another way to say it - a habit that's followed me into everything I build now.
3ozs didn't come from a business plan. It came from life - and it's still growing, the same way I am.
