Khrys previously produced an industry-first webcast, pilot for internet television, the Women in Green Technology panel (with Ingrid Vanderveldt among panelists), and a weekly radio show featuring diverse women in business that reached over 16,000 listens. Her first novel, The Red Umbrella Society, won second place in the Missouri Writing Guild’s Fall Fiction contest.

On a personal note, Khrys is adventurous, vegan, enjoys long walks, loose leaf tea, and creating memories with her family.
