Working at the K-12 through university level, she is committed to helping students find their inspiration and empowering them to embrace identity. By fostering safe and comfortable environments, she aims to guide students in developing their voices to tell their stories visually. Her artistic approach involves exploration and experimentation through painting, drawing, sculpture, textiles, and merchandising. Pulling from her personal beliefs on art-making, she encourages students to find inspiration in their everyday experiences.
Christina enjoys working with students during their formative years, and finds that art creates a connection between her and her students for mutual inspiration. In giving kids a platform to consider their ideas and emotions, she hopes to give them an outlet that benefits their overall being, helping them develop self-acceptance, healthy relationships, community engagement, and happiness.
