Krystan is the daughter of Sheila Pradia and Kenneth Norris, and the granddaughter of Elvis

Pradia. Born in Washington D.C. and raised in Kensington, Maryland, Krystan attended University of Massachusetts-Amherst where she studied and attained fluency in Mandarin Chinese. This allowed her to travel and teach in China for two years as well as explore other countries such as Japan and Taiwan.

Afterward, she completed her second B.A. in Graphic Communications from the University of Maryland Global Campus. She’s always been an artist, but with the proper training of her degree program, she’s been successfully able to design and deliver brand logos, illustrations, and intuitive websites for various clients. Krystan enjoys community and finds joy in creating things for a cause or cultural event. In her free time, she likes to go hiking or to the beach, visit a museum or local coffee shop, and eat, regardless if they’re hole-in-the-walls or Michelin star rated.
