Christina graduated from the University of Colorado with a BS degree in economics, cum laude, with high distinction in economics. She was a finalist for Student of the Year and was a National Science Foundation Merit Award finalist. As an undergraduate, she worked as the contributing editor of a nationally published economics undergraduate magazine, The Margin, where she wrote and edited feature articles.

Before launching rabble+rouser in 2005, Christina served as the vice president of marketing for Weber-Stephen Products Co. where she lead the creative strategy for one of America’s best-loved brands for nearly ten years. Prior to that, she worked as an independent marketing consultant with a client list that included Teledyne Water Pik, Waterloo Industries, Dremel Tools, and Weber. She also served for three years as account director for National Demographics & Lifestyles where she helped companies including Zenith Electronics, Sauder Woodworking, Teledyne Water Pik, Hoover, Insinkerator, Mirro, NEC, Dremel Tools, Emerson Electric, True Value, and Skil Power Tools turn consumer insights into strategic marketing initiatives.

Christina is a published author and a national public speaker on topics relating to non-traditional advertising and other marketing matters. She’s the youngest of twelve children, which, she believes, shaped her ability to find creative ways to get her message heard above the noise. As a student of human behavior, she loves to travel and experience different cultures and perspectives. She believes there is no better place to witness how people live than at the local market.
