Christina recently joined Obsidian after practicing the public relations trade in a number of industries – including architecture, tourism, nonprofit, music and the performing arts – both in Memphis and New York City, where she earned her master’s degree in public relations and corporate communications.

Once destined for the performance stage, Christina’s bachelor studies at Capital University in Columbus, Ohio, were actually focused on music with only a minor in public relations. However, after a move to New York City and experience in event planning, it was clear that her PR skills were taking center stage. That’s when she enrolled in graduate school at New York University.
