Christina has been a life-long musician, beginning private piano lessons at the age of six and continuing on to the college level. She studied classical piano formally but was excited to branch out into other genres as her studies progressed, dipping her toes into: ragtime, contemporary and video game music.
Music has always been a consistent, pervasive force; not only from taking lessons but growing up in a musical family and studying additional instruments in school. Though solo piano has always been Christina’s passion, participation in bands and other ensemble groups has given her invaluable knowledge and the ability to empathize and work with other musicians.
Currently, Christina is living in the Athens, GA area where she teaches piano, accompanies voice students at UGA and in private lessons, is the principal pianist and voice coach for the RespirOpera Company, and performs in various other shows, venues and functions. Her online presence is substantial with a large library of accompaniment tracks for vocalists to practice with and many solo piano performances on her YouTube channel.
When not practicing or performing, Christina is also an avid tabletop and video game player, and busies herself with the care and scritching of Australian Shepherds.
