Chris Goode, Founder and CEO of Ruby Jean’s Juicery @Ruby Jean's Juicery | Kansas City Juicery (rubyjeansjuicery.com)tap on the photo below to hear Chris’ comments about Chrystal and her work.

Camry Ivory, Coloratura-art

I highly recommend Chrystal for her outstanding contributions as a program consultant. I had the privilege of working closely with Chrystal during her tenure at KC Scholars, and I witnessed first-hand her dedication, expertise, and ability to drive positive change, which have all been invaluable assets in our organization and in other organizations that she has worked with. She excels in managing complex projects, grants, and administrative tasks with meticulous attention to detail. Throughout our collaboration, Chrystal consistently demonstrated her ability to establish relationships with different teams and bridge the communication gap to ensure all stakeholders were fully informed of progress and updates in major projects.

Chrystal's strong communication skills and collaborative approach allowed her to effectively work with all stakeholders, resulting in successful outcomes. Her ability to articulate complex ideas in a clear and concise manner has been instrumental in facilitating understanding and alignment among team members. Chrystal's collaborative nature fosters an environment of open communication, trust, and teamwork.

"What an awesome experience it has been to work with Chrystal! We've been receiving business coaching since November 2022 and it has been an amazing experience thus far. The tone was set at the beginning, meaning, Chrystal had a very detailed intake process. During the process, expectations were set on both parts to ensure a smooth working relationship. Chrystal's contributions to our business have exceeded our expectations in just these few months. Some of her services have included business coaching, marketing strategies, networking connections and so much more. With her coaching, we succeeded in receiving our first business grant. She has been such an asset and we look forward to what's to come!"
Richard Jr & Shawnice Parker

Chrystal has completed 1-on-1 coaching sessions with us, which has led to key connections to resources and people that have helped grow our business. The coaching and networking events have helped our business grow and us to grow as professionals. In addition, Chrystal’s coaching empowered and enhanced our mindset to think and dream bigger!
