With a degree in Psychology from Millersville University earned in 1984, Crystal's passion for paying it forward led her to work as a Drug and Alcohol Therapist after college. Her career trajectory included impactful roles at First Step Detox, an in-patient detox facility, Talbot House, a residential treatment facility, and eventually, an alcohol education coordinator position at Wilsbach in 1985. Over the years, this role evolved into a Marketing Director position.

​

In 2017, after 32 years with Wilsbach, Crystal made the bold decision to resign and dedicate herself entirely to her consultancy, driven by an unwavering commitment to promoting the safe use of alcohol. With children and grandchildren on the roads, she believes in leaving no room for excuses when it comes to drinking and driving.
