Meet Krys
Here to help you release stress while being an active participant in your life.
Formulated by scientists. Thoughtfully created. Fueled by kanna.
Hi, we’re Krys, and believe our products can help transform everyday chaos into mindful connection.
Krysalis was born from a desire to help others using the wisdom we’ve learned about the countless benefits plants provide the world. We think it’s pretty amazing what we can do for ourselves and others, with a little intentionality, a little plant lovin’, and a little time to chill.
A proudly female-founded company, Krysalis is an early innovator in the rapidly growing plant/botanical supplement industry. We’re passionate about our global community, and our actions reflect this dedication. Our name reflects our promise to you: Krysalis transforms everyday chaos into mindful connection.
We’ve all spent a lotta time “numbing” stress (which inevitably takes us away from our lives), but Krysalis believes in a different approach: We bring intentionality and guidance to the forefront, helping you release stress while being an active participant in your life.
Listen, you’re not alone in feeling overwhelmed. Life’s coming at us fast and hard, and it’s up to all of us to navigate the waves as best we can. Krysalis is here for you. Enough checking out, it’s time to check back in.
our values
We respect that everyone’s on their own journey. . . What’s that saying? Oh, yeah:
“We may all be in the same storm, but we’re definitely not in the same boat.”
That’s ok, because Krysalis works no matter what vessel you’re in.
We appreciate, honor, and bear witness to the work people invest in themselves to move through difficult times. Shit’s hard, we see you!
"We offer people safe, effective, and life-changing plant-based products that can help them to feel at peace, connected and present as they navigate their life’s journey."

who we are
Krysalis was founded by a group of friends who believe deeply in the power of plants and personal growth. We’re heart-centric, meaning everything we do intentionally supports our values, our world, and ourselves.
We’ve got big dreams to deliver new, immersive physical and digital experiences to the North American market via plant-based products.
We strive to create an atmosphere that sparks creativity, happiness and support.
Our team is made of a group of incredible individuals that bring so many unique traits/skills to the table.
Katie Isiminger
Co-Founder and CEO
If you met Katie, you would feel a sense of peacefulness almost immediately. Deeply grounded and connected to nature, as our plant-medicine woman, Katie brings with her a wealth of experience as the Founder of Love Collective Co. (a highly engaged women’s online community), a Plant Medicine Facilitator, a chemical engineer, and formerly Head of Development at L'Oreal. Her wisdom in both the power of plants and natural remedies runs deep, along with her skills in the product development process, which allows us to create highly effective and intentional products that will best serve our customers.
Kristy Wieber
Chief Growth Officer
You will hear Kristy's full-belly laugh before you see her. Don't be alarmed by a random high kick - sometimes she just has to bust a move. Kristy is a recognized entrepreneur with over 10 years of experience as co-founder and president of an award-winning start-up, and over 20 years experience in marketing. Otherwise known as "The Go-To" or the "Been There, Done That", she brings a depth of knowledge and innovation to the constant improvement of the user experience, e-commerce, strategy, and growth.
Garner Bornstein
Senior Advisor
If you met Garner, you would connect instantly with him. His generosity of spirit, welcoming manner & astute business acumen will have you on the edge of your seat, leaning in to listen to what he has to say. A veteran founder & our key advisor to the development of this business, Garner is the Co-Founder of the Breethe App, and formerly the CEO of Airborne Mobile. He is a visionary in business & in life.
Shanna Cooper
Director of Marketing and Branding
If you met Shanna, you would THINK she is quite proper (she’s our British contingent), but you would learn quickly that she is actually a rebel heart, sitting happily in dark, bad assery, hard core rock and roll over anything light. She also has a heart of gold. Shanna’s imagination, pulse of all things cool & epic & willingness to try to figure it out brings so much to the marketing side of the biz.
Jennifer Powell
Co-Founder
If you met Jenn, you would likely get a hug from her right off the bat. Jenn is the Yang to Katie’s Yin, a highly energetic and gregarious creative in charge of our brand voice, maintaining an irreverent and don’t take life too seriously (but also totally honoring the seriousness of personal growth) part of our brand. Jenn’s breadth of experience working music agency/concert production on both the agency side (for top North American CPG brands) and brand side (for Harley-Davidson) as well as then moving on to building a digital marketing, influencer management, and event agency gives her all the tools and expertise to create this amazing brand.
