Kriesel is one of the founding members of the band alongside singer Dexter Holland. He was also on the track and field team in high school along with fellow bandmate Holland, and was also in the Math Club.
On May 28, 2008, Kriesel announced on The Offspring's website that he was taking a hiatus from touring because of a "scheduled family matter" but would be returning to the fold by mid-June. Face to Face bassist Scott Shiflett filled in for him on those shows. The "scheduled family matter" was a new baby as he became a father for the fourth time.
He currently lives in the Huntington Harbour community in Huntington Beach, California.
