Cristabelle is passionate about bringing forth change to help the lives of brain injury survivors everywhere. She has been active in brain injury advocacy, meeting with members of Congress, and has regularly attended Brain Injury Awareness Day on Capitol Hill alongside the Brain Injury Association of America.

Cristabelle writes all of her own music. She has has worked with producer and mixing engineer Stephen Leiweke on both Start With Hello and Declaration - she is pictured here recording at his studio, Yackland Studio, in Nashville, TN.

Cristabelle is very involved with the Brain Injury Association of Pennsylvania, where she resides. Pictured: In 2017 she was presented with an award for her work with Hope After Head Injury at their annual conference (where she also gave the keynote). In 2018 she traveled to the state capitol in Harrisburg to advocate for brain injury with members of the Senate. She is also a committed BIAPA volunteer.

Cristabelle earned her Master of Arts in Theological Studies from Liberty University in May 2021 with the goal of working in ministry, sharing God's Word through her music and speaking, and creating Bible study curriculum for brain injury survivors (see her Brain Injury Bible Study ministry)

After releasing “Hope Survives”, Cristabelle traveled all over the US singing & sharing hope at over 60 different places within one year; meeting so many inspiring survivors & caregivers at brain injury groups, rehab centers, clubhouses, camps, conferences, and more! Pictured with brain injury survivors at some of the places she went.

It’s about so much more than music - Cristabelle takes time to connect with all she meets. A story from the Hope Survives Tour: “This guy was the first one I met when we walked into Beacon House brain injury clubhouse. His smile is just contagious! After the show, I spent some time talking with him some more to hear about his journey through brain injury. Each word was a struggle for him to speak, however he had more joy than anyone I'd ever seen. He then asked if he could pray for me, laid his hand on my head, and began to pray and thank Jesus with everything he had. It's moments like this that remind me why hope survives.”

Just one example of countless moments in Cristabelle’s ministry with brain injury!

She has spoken at many women’s events, youth events, and church conferences and retreats, sharing the Word and hope in Jesus. She is passionate about sharing Truth - whether through music or speaking!

Cristabelle released her first book independently in January 2018, called “more to me: discovering your freedom through identity”. It is an interactive journey and prayer journal based on one of her songs. Here’s a testimony from a reader of the book:

“I went through your book this past week. It's so much more than just a Bible study because you share so much of yourself in it. Please believe whatever you went through, it's all been worth it. I have a more open heart to the Lord now, and more faith in His love for me because of the journey I took through your book.”
