From Side Hustle to Full-Time Founder: Quitting Her Job, Pregnancy Surprises, and Start-Up Stardom with Kristyn Rose Berland, Founder

It has been a whirlwind year for Kristyn Rose Berland, Founder of Crate Away. Just two days after quitting her full-time job to go all in on her start-up, Kristyn found out she was pregnant. Two days later, her entrepreneurial reality show Side Hustlers premiered. Things have really taken off since then. 
For the past few years, Kristyn has been working her butt off to get her pet crate business Crate Away off of the ground. In addition to selling her car for seed money, Kristyn worked her corporate job full time and spent nights and weekends working on her startup. Kristyn’s hard work finally paid off when she received a starring role on Roku's Side Hustlers, a show that provides mentorship and investment opportunities for female founders. Landing an investment of $100,000, Kristyn finally made the emotional decision to quit her job. She is now all in on founder life, and her innovative pet crate will be available for pet lovers everywhere by the end of summer.
