Christina Krol (Sicoli)
Christina Krol (Sicoli) is a designer, author, illustrator, and mother who believes that great design belongs in the hands of even the youngest thinkers. With formal training in industrial design, she brings a user-centric yet whimsical approach to children’s products, specializing in illustration, toys, and experiences tailored for growing minds.
Her work with Chunky Deli serves as the perfect intersection of her passions: design, experience, and foodie culture. Christina creates engaging goods that encourage curiosity both at and away from the kitchen—helping toddlers and young children connect with new topics, flavors, and ideas through vibrant art and tactile interaction.
Outside the studio, Christina is an enthusiastic gardener and hands-on DIYer who finds inspiration in the messiness and joy of everyday life with her family. Through every book, product, and project, her goal remains the same: to rethink routine moments and help families discover new ways to play, learn, and grow together.
