==Survivor==
Krista entered the game as a member of the Zapatera tribe. At first, Krista seemed to be against returning-player Russell Hantz, much like the majority of the tribe, but later Russell started a small alliance with her and fellow tribemate Stephanie Valencia. At Zapatera's first Tribal Council on Day 8, Krista voted with her alliance against Ralph Kiser. Ultimately though, they were unable to convince Julie Wolfe to vote with them and Russell was sent to , leaving Krista and Stephanie on the outs.
After Tribal Council, Krista and Stephanie isolated themselves from the rest of Zapatera and later pledged their allegiance to Ometepe at the Day 12 Redemption Island duel, stating that they hated their tribe. When Zapatera lost the Immunity Challenge the following day, Krista and Stephanie cast their votes against Steve Wright, viewing him as the weakest member of the group. However, the rest of the tribe remained united and voted Krista out instead. The next day, Krista dueled Matt Elrod on Redemption Island and lost, permanently eliminating her from the game. Before she left, Krista gave Matt her luxury item, which was a Bible, to help him through the remainder of the game.
