Born in Syracuse, New York and raised in Fort Lauderdale, FL Christina knew she couldn’t bear to leave the Sunshine State when it came time to choose colleges. She chose to complete her undergrad degree in education at the University of Tampa and later her Masters at Saint Leo University. Christina fell in love with the Bay area and adopted Tampa as her new hometown.

Prior to Griffin Resources, Christina achieved 15 years of experience in education. She brings with her time in education expertise in management skills, presentation and instruction, communication, collaboration, organization, interpersonal skills, adaptability, building relationships with clients, and problem solving. Christina’s time in education provided her with high emotional intelligence as well as the ability to work under pressure.  She has also spent many years in mentorship roles.

Outside of work, Christina enjoys spending time with her family and friends.  As a Florida resident, she takes full advantage of theme park adventures and can often be found exploring Disney Parks or Busch Gardens. An avid reader, she is also a member of several book clubs. Most weekends, though, Christina likes to build strategy skills with her husband and friends playing board games.
