She was a semi-finalist in the Boston Comedy Festival, Funniest Person in Massachusetts, and Mohegan Sun’s Last Comix Standing competition. Kristy has also been featured on WCVB’s Chronicle. When Kristy is not making jokes she can be found at the bus stop telling her kids to tie their shoes.

She starred in the comedy review Funniest Females at O’Shea’s for a year, hosted at Caesar’s Magical Empire, and performed at many other fantastic events.
