Crystal St. Louis was born and raised in the beautiful West Indian Island of Dominica. A true renaissance woman, she juggles the responsibility of being a mother to her 2 boys, wife to her husband of 20 years, and her career in mental health. When not caring for others, she spends her time designing decadent baked goods. Ever the creative spirit, she took up writing as another means of artistic expression. She credits her drive to her grandmother and has completed two master's degrees in business management and mental health counseling. Crystal finds perspective in her faith which serves as her source of hope and inspiration. Words of Affirmation is Crystal's first children's book, but certainly not her last.
