Narrative:

I was copilot operating a flight from dca to lga. ATC cleared the flight to descend via the korry one arrival. The FMS was programmed with this arrival. I commenced descent from FL210 to cross korry intersection at 10000 ft as per the arrival procedure. I selected the vertical speed mode of the autoplt and established appropriate rate of descent to cross intermediate intxns as depicted and be level at korry intersection at 10000 ft. I crossed 'skipy,' intersection at FL190 as depicted. I continued to monitor descent to insure of crossing korry at 10000 ft. I was distracted and failed to cross next intermediate fix 'bessi' at 17000 ft or above. I was at 16700 ft MSL prior to reaching 'bessi.' I leveled off, crossed 'bessi' at 16700 ft, and then resumed descent and complied with the remainder of the korry one arrival as depicted. The captain noticed the error and brought it immediately to my attention.
