She played competitive volleyball and coached high school volleyball at Mercy San Francisco high school.

Her love for building relationships with others and helping them return to the activities they love, sparked her interest in becoming a Physical Therapist.

She has worked with volleyball, basketball, baseball, and soccer players of the high school and collegiate level. She treats her patients holistically and creates a treatment plan individualized towards her patients goals. Her main goals are to make a positive impact on her patients, educate individuals on ways to independently manage their symptoms and improve their strength/flexibility, and empower them to achieve their goals.
In her spare time, Christina enjoys exploring new restaurants and coffee shops and cooking new recipes. She also loves all things fashion, especially streetwear and sneakers.
