Inspired to Be... Books
Crystel Patterson
Crystel Patterson
Crystel is a mother to two beautiful boys, a Technology Consultant, and a self-published author.
In January 2021, she published her first children’s book, which kicked off her "Inspired to be..." children’s book series. The "Inspired to be..." book series seeks to spread Black inspiration to ALL children through stories based on the culture, experiences, and dreams of Black people. Each story in the series delivers a universal message that any child can relate to and is inspired by a real person so that children will have a point of reference and can say, "If they can do that, then so can I".
Crystel received her Bachelor of Science degree in Industrial Engineering and Operations Research at UC Berkeley, but her outlook and experience around inspirational children’s literature for children comes solely from being a mother and a seeker of inspiration.
