MyBackground

Krystal Martinez is a passionate percussionist and emerging music professional who will graduate in 2026 with a Bachelor’s degree in Music Technology and a Minor in Business Entrepreneurship. With a deep appreciation for the power of sound in storytelling, Krystal is pursuing a career in music supervision, where her goal is to elevate visual media through thoughtful and emotionally resonant song selection. She believes that film and television are built on a perfect balance — 50% visual and 50% audio — where the sets, costumes, and performances are matched in importance by the score, music selection, and foley work. For Krystal, music is not just a background element but a vital emotional guide that shapes how audiences connect with a story. A lifelong movie lover who grew up watching films every day, Krystal draws inspiration from her favorite film, I, Robot, which reflects her fascination with technology, emotion, and the human experience through sound and image.
