Guided by her father, Kristalis Sotomayor began playing music when she was 4 years old. When she turned 5, her father took her to a school of music where she started to develop as a musician. She participated in a summer camp with Berklee College of Music in Puerto Rico, then auditioned and won a full scholarship to participate in the Berklee Five-Week Summer Performance Program. She subsequently auditioned and won a full scholarship to study for a bachelor's degree at Berklee in Boston.
Currently Sotomayor continues to study and develop as a flutist and pianist.

She has recorded several movie soundtracks with Berklee's Film Scoring Orchestra. She teaches as a private music teacher and has given several master classes to high school students at a summer camp organized by the Puerto Rican Police Department.
