Krista grew up watching Charlie Chaplin and the Marx Brothers as a child on the Upper West Side of Manhattan in New York City. Even as a young child, she had a serious passion for the stage, and loved both acting and singing, (and dancing like Elaine Benes...she hopes you know that Seinfeld reference).
Five years ago, Krista moved out to LA, trading in riding the subway to jamming out to Led Zeppelin in her car stuck in traffic. When she's not busy being her own stage mom, she loves to escape to hike in the mountains and explore beaches.
Most recently, Krista's performance in the short film The Babies has won her 3 Best Actress Awards at various film festivals, and the film has additionally won 20 awards already in the film festival circuit this season. She also has a national commercial for Lays & Ballpark Franks running this year.
She is currently filming her recurring role on the series Sangre Negra (Robert Miano, Eric Roberts, Erik Estrada), which will be streaming on Amazon soon. She also shot 4 films this past fall, including The Nesting Doll (Lesly Nicol, Brooke Elliott, French Stewart).
Krista has appeared on 30 Rock, the show Bar Karma produced by the Sim's creator, Z-Rock on IFC, and Beauty Queen Murders on ID Channel. She's been very busy filming commercials including national spots for Coors Light, Carl's Jr., Dr. Pepper and Target, and many short films and indie features including Gala & Godfrey, which swept many film festivals awards last season.
Krista has a long time background in musical theater, one of her favorite performances was when she brought tears and laughter to her audience playing Audrey in Little Shop of Horrors. She has performed Off-Broadway and in many New York theater festivals.
