Summary

Crystal Muellstein said her PTA and community involvement give her knowledge of local school and neighborhood issues. She shared contact information and said she would be accessible to constituents, attend meetings, and hold neighborhood meetups.

Crystal Muellstein described community involvement and local experience she would bring to the Orem City Council.

Muellstein said she has served on multiple PTAs (Windsor Elementary, Canyon View Junior High, Timpanogos High School) and on the Timpanogos Council, which she said has familiarized her with school and neighborhood issues. “I've been attending the meetings, the city council meetings for the past 2 years. I'm up on the issues. I know what's happening here,” she said.

She emphasized accessibility: she gave a cellphone number on the podcast and said she would hold park meetups and remain after council meetings to talk with constituents unless a closed session occurred. She described having the time to dedicate to the role after leaving a surgical-assistant position when her employer retired.
