Hello! I'm Krista

I am a 30-year lineman's wife, mama of four, children's book author, and entrepreneur. I am the original creator of terms often seen in our trade such as linewife, linelife, and linekid. I was also the original founder of Linecrate before handing it off so I could travel with my lineman. You'll find books here I wish I had for our kids when they were smaller. 

  • MSED Reading & Literacy Instruction

    I graduated Summa Cum Laude with an MSEd in Reading and Literacy Instruction and completed an intensive Orton-Gillingham 100 hour practicum in late 2024.

  • Entrepreneur & Homeschool Mom

    When I am not writing children's books, I am working on my other businesses, which includes a paddleboard brand, working on our homestead, or homeschooling our children.

  • Travel

    Outside books, literacy and homeschooling, I love traveling, especially with my children. We have been to 48 states, 42 National Parks and endless national monuments, national forests, state parks and world-class museums.
