Krissy was born and raised in Upstate New York in the charming town of Fairport where she has taught for over 25 years. Krissy remembers her love of reading as a young child and how she couldn't get enough of great books such as The Chronicles of Narnia, Lord of the Rings, and The Hobbit. Her love of mystery was first revealed within the pages of From The Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler by E.L. Konigsburg and Nancy Drew's mystery series. She mostly reads mystery, suspense, and thriller novels but enjoys fantasy and historical fiction too. Some of her favorite suspense/thriller authors are Janelle Brown, Karin Slaughter, Lisa Jewel, Kate White, and Lisa Gardner.
Krissy recently published Lies That Bind, the prequel to her Ella Perri Mystery Series. She is looking forward to the paperback launch of LIes That Bind in the Summer of 2023. In addition, four of her short fiction thrillers have been bundled together into a Psychological Thriller Box Set.
