Some previous clients include the CDC, Stanford University, the City of Emeryville, and Pixar Animation Studios. She was the owner/founder of East Bay Pilates and is also the author of Finding Lifestyle Sanity: A Survival Guide. It is a no-nonsense book on well-being for mature individuals.

When not at the Ranch, Krisna likes to hike, cook, read a good book, and, of course, work out. As a former professional dancer, Krisna travelled the world, from Russia to Europe. She used to live in The Netherlands and speaks Dutch. Her best general advice? “Eat real food and move as much as you can.”
