Why she is excited to represent Team USO:

On each of Krysta’s deployments, she was able to maintain connections to her family through the USO’s services.

Krysta is so grateful for the USO, she became a member of New England’s advisory board. She is eager to raise funds and awareness for the USO by running the 2023 Boston Marathon.
