Amazing women on the Coast: Chryssi Flores, Director of Game Presentation with NOLA Saints & Pelicans

GULFPORT, Miss. (WXXV) – For years, when one thinks of the sports industry.. Women are often left out… But recently, there’s been a big boom in not only women’s sports, but also the women who work behind the scenes in sports organizations.  Chryssi Flores is the Director of Game Presentation for the New Orleans Saints and Pelicans. Before getting to the big ranks, Flores says her journey there was not easy. 

Between finishing school while taking care of her first daughter and working multiple jobs at once, her story is impactful and inspiring for many young women. When faced with adversity from her peers, Flores says don’t count yourself out. Just people one person doesn’t see your potential doesn’t mean it’s not possible. 

The Mississippi Gulf Coast Chambers of Commerce invited Flores to guest speak for their Women’s History event. The room was filled with professional women all looking to break boundaries in their fields.
