No relation to the evil empire☺... I'm a Midwestern refugee who became a New York actor.
Some recent gigs include the films Facing the Wave (2010) and Slumberland (2011), the Fox television series, New Amsterdam (Mary Worth), and commercials for Drano, Six Flags, Southcentre and Daiwa Securities.
After graduating from Syracuse University and Oberlin Theatre Institute, I moved to the East Coast to attend the American Academy of Dramatic Arts. Upon graduation from AADA, I began my New York theatre career in loads of Way-Off, Off-Off and Off-Broadway theatres. In 1995, I co-founded the 11th Hour Company, a 501(c) theatre company in Manhattan. I starred in and produced several contemporary American plays around Manhattan. I was starring as Beth in the 11th Hour production of Sam Shepard's A Lie of the Mind when I met my manager, Karen Gunn of Soiree Fair, Inc.
Christina is currently shooting the feature film, “Hide Your Smiling Faces”, by Daniel Patrick Carbone — a film about two brothers growing up in rural America. Christina plays their mother, Karen.
