Before moving to Colorado this summer and working as a veterinary technician, she has been working with small, large and exotic animals in Rochester, New York. Christina is deaf herself and is also fluent in American Sign Language (ASL). Christina always had animals growing up, but now has two dogs, a boxer mix Roo and silver lab Jazz and also one white DSH cat. In her free time, she likes going on hikes with her dogs, traveling and taking naps! ;)
