Krista, who lives with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT), is a
federal government employee with a bachelor’s degree in criminal justice and a
Master’s in management and public administration. She is also passionate about
improving community accessibility for people with disabilities. Krista is a
voice for many when she expresses her exhaustion caused by the uncertainty of
making plans in her community, questioning whether there will be parking access,
entrance ramps, and easily maneuverable doors for wheelchair users. Krista has
brought modifiable accessibility concerns to the attention of local leaders in
her area and will continue to strive to liberate people with disabilities by
advocating for changes to physical barriers throughout Ohio.
In addition to sharing her platform, Krista served as a leader, role model, and
spokesperson for the disability community in the state. She traveled across Ohio
to educate the public and contribute to a more inclusive society, and her reign
culminated when she traveled to Grand Rapids, Michigan, to compete for the title
of Ms. Wheelchair America in August 2022.
