Crystal Lett is a proud hometown native of Hilliard and graduated from Hilliard Davidson High School. After high school, Crystal graduated from The Ohio State University in 2008 with a degree in political science and began her work in advocating for mental illness. 

Through Crystal’s determination and experience advocating for mental illness she is an excellent candidate for the Ohio House of Representatives, District 11. After graduation, due to Crystal’s brother David’s mental health struggles, Crystal decided to become a Case Manager at North Central Mental Health where she worked with children ages 14 to 21. After the loss of David, as well as Crystal’s first son Noble being born with a complex genetic disorder, Crystal began to manage a psychological practice in 2011 to stay committed to the mental health community. In 2016, Crystal became an advocate for Save the Children Action Network, REACH Every Mother and Child Act, and in 2017 became partners with Ignite our City to create awareness for members of the community experiencing the tragedies associated with addiction and opioid crisis. Crystal also partnered with Nationwide Children’s Hospital to advocate for both the hospital and Children’s Hospital Association to speak out about the importance of CHIP benefits for families and created The Salon Lab Columbus to help women interested in politics. In 2023, Crystal accepted the role of Recruitment Director at LEAD Ohio to recruit and train candidates that will fight against extremism and protect democracy.  

The Matriots are proud to endorse Crystal for the Ohio House of Representatives District 4 so she can continue advocating for mental health, paid parental leave, universal pre-school programing, reproductive rights, and increased rights and justice for sexual assault survivors. The Matriots can’t wait to see what Crystal will do in the future.
