Meet the Owner

My name is Crystal and I am the owner of Light of Mine Candle Supply. We are a black and female-owned small business based in Tucson, Arizona that started in July 2020. I also own a personal training company called On the Move Home Fitness that I started five years ago.

I grew up in Houston, Texas and have an undergraduate degree in kinesiology as well as a masters degree in exercise science from Sam Houston State University in Huntsville, Texas. I also have my NASM in personal training and my NASM in nutrition training. 

I moved to Tucson, Arizona seven years ago with my husband - who is now a Veteran of the Air Force. We have a one-year-old boy and a three-year-old boy. Our family also has a four-year-old Amstaff pup named Kobe. 

I am passionate about fitness and health - and love to hike, do snow sports and sky dive. I have performed in four fitness competitions and am a dancer trained in everything except tap. My ancestors are mostly from Senegal and Benin - and my family and I have a goal to travel to Africa soon. Besides my love for candles and fitness, I am also an avid reader and a huge advocate for the arts, human rights and the environment.
