Kris Valkyrie: A Story of Resilience, Passion, and Transformation

Kris Valkyrie is making a triumphant return to the spotlight, reclaiming her power and redefining her identity after stepping away from the music industry in 2012. Formerly known as DJ Cristal Da Bad Girl, Kris is leaving that persona behind and embracing this comeback as a deeply personal journey—one that marks her evolution as an artist, creative, and individual.

At the age of 12, Kris discovered a passion for competition and self-expression through pageantry, which became a formative experience that shaped her confidence and drive. With over 12 years of experience competing in and judging pageants at state, national, and international levels, Kris mastered the art of poise, resilience, and self-presentation, skills that would later influence her transition into other creative fields.

Transitioning from pageantry, Kris pursued a career in DJing, inspired by her cousin, the legendary DJ Charlie Chase. Under her former moniker, DJ Cristal Da Bad Girl, she made her mark in a male-dominated industry. She worked on prominent internet radio shows, collaborated with artists and producers across Reggaeton, Hip-Hop, and House music, and developed a reputation for blending her multicultural heritage—Puerto Rican, French, Spanish, Taíno, Scottish, and Gaelic—with the dynamic energy of her Brooklyn upbringing.

After stepping away from the music industry in 2012 to focus on education, family, and personal growth, Kris redefined herself. During her hiatus, she earned an Associate’s degree in Broadcasting Technology and Management with a minor in film editing and production, followed by a BA in Social Science with a concentration in Media Studies from New York University. Her academic journey also included co-authoring a published book highlighting the stories of children whose parents were 9/11 first responders. Kris simultaneously built a career as a litigation paralegal, specializing in sexual assault, sex trafficking, domestic violence, personal injury, civil rights, excessive force by law enforcement, and NYPD disciplinary department trials—an area she continues to be deeply passionate about as she pursues her ultimate goal of attending law school.

Kris’s diverse experiences have also led her to establish her company, Kris Valkyrie, LLC, and host her podcast, The Poisonous Daily. These platforms allow her to channel her creative energy into advocacy, storytelling, and uplifting others. Drawing on her spiritual and cultural values, Kris continues to break barriers and inspire others to chase their dreams.

Beyond her professional achievements, Kris takes immense pride in her roles as a devoted mother of four, a loving wife, and a dedicated doberman mom. Her passion for justice, advocacy, and empowerment aligns with her current title as Mrs. Activist New York. She views her comeback as a personal reclamation of her power, stepping forward into a new chapter as Kris Valkyrie—leaving DJ Cristal Da Bad Girl behind.
