Fun Facts
The best advice Christina has ever received is “The true joy is in giving, not receiving.”
For a brief time, Christina lived in Galway, Ireland, where she served hot tea and scones while working in a small eatery.
Not everyone knows that Christina is secretly interested in becoming a birdwatcher.
As a child, she wanted to be a veterinarian because of her love of animals. Her career interests took a turn after she enrolled in a sign language class and discovered the field of speech pathology.
