Crissy Klaus, CEO & Founder
If anyone told Crissy Klaus five years ago that she would be involved in the child care industry, she would have laughed.
Now, five years later, Crissy is immersed in the field by pioneering a new early care and learning concept - the first “Eco Early Care & Learning Boutique” that seeks to transform the way families view relationships with their child care provider. Read More...
As a mother — Crissy has experienced the full gamut of challenges associated with caring for young children. Inspired by her personal experiences with child care and ignited by an opportunity presented by famed Atlantic Station developer Jim Jacoby , the vision for FIO360 emerged.
Now, two years later, FIO360 is poised to present a one-of-a-kind, eco-friendly early care and learning center where children are nurtured, educated and positioned to become well-rounded and promise-filled individuals.
Prior to founding FIO360, Crissy Klaus pursued a 15-year career in corporate marketing for organizations such as Pepsi-Cola and Canandaigua Wine. Upon retiring from her marketing career, Crissy founded a thriving real estate investment company, buying and renting homes to families throughout metro Atlanta. Crissy is also engaged with various nonprofit organizations, including the Foundation Board of Trustees for Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta, Board of Trustees for Atlanta International School, and Board of Trustees for the Robert Ferst Center of Performing Arts at Georgia Tech.
Crissy is a graduate of Georgia State University where she earned a bachelor of arts in Marketing. She currently resides in Atlanta with her husband and children.
