See what the University of Southern California (USC) Leonard Davis School of Gerontology has to say about Krystal Walden and her time in the Master of Science in Gernotolgy program. "Krystal Walden has always moved fast. From an early age, she established herself as a first-class sprinter, earning an athletic scholarship to UCLA. And though she no longer sprints, Walden carries the mindset of pushing forward with relentless focus.

Not only does she run her own health and fitness business and help manage a large physical therapy practice, she recently completed a Master of Science in Gerontology (MSG). Despite these accomplishments, she says, "I don't feel like I've done enough. I've still got more to do." Indeed, wherever Walden's path takes her, she has a strong foundation to build on."
