Kristy Sarah Small (born May 17, 1995), also known as Kristy Sarah, is an American social media personality, digital creator, filmmaker, and entrepreneur.[2] She gained a large following across platforms through videos centered on family-friendly content, including pranks, lifestyle, and home design. In 2023, Small was recognized in the Forbes 30 Under 30 list for social media influencers.[3]
Background and education
Based in Texas, Kristy graduated from the University of Houston with a Bachelor of Computer Information Systems degree at the age of 20.[4]
Career
Following her graduation from university, Kristy worked as an IT engineer. She left working in the ICT industry to pursue social media content creation full-time. She began her content-creating career by posting videos alongside her former husband and their kids.[5] Her content focuses on family-oriented fun and reactions, and home design, aesthetics and renovation.[4][6][7][8] She became very popular with her videos on social media. One video shows her tricking her former husband with a cake that looks like a chicken, and another video shows her making a playhouse for her kids.[9][10][11]
Kristy and her former husband were guests at the 64th Annual Grammy Awards in April 2022.[12] By 2023, she had amassed approximately 11 million followers across TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube, and secured brand partnerships with companies including Estée Lauder, Hilton, and Google.[4] That year, she was included in the Forbes 30 under 30 social media category.[3][4]
In 2023, Kristy released her personalized planner in a collaborative effort with notebook maker North + Third.[13] The planner, which was a 6-month, 174-page scheduling format, included pages for setting goals, bucket lists, managing one's projects, and budgeting, alongside the conventional weekly and monthly pages of the calendar.[14][15]
Personal life
Kristy married Desmond Scott, her high school sweetheart, in 2014 after four years of dating.[16][17] They have two sons together and own a production company centered on wedding videography.[17] In 2024, the couple celebrated their 10th wedding anniversary with a lavish party that was featured in People magazine.[18] Kristy filed for divorce on December 30, 2025, citing alleged infidelity that "completely wiped out any reasonable chance of reconciliation."[19] In her divorce petition, she requested that the court restore her surname to her maiden name, Small.[20]
