She holds a B.S. in Cinema and Photography from Ithaca College.
Christina also has a passion for outdoor and adventure photography, as well as environmental portraiture, and appreciates environments where life uniquely thrives at the edge. One of her favorite places to photograph is the woodlands of Northern Wisconsin, where her family lives. Her favorite images are ones which capture something sublime and out-of-the-ordinary, especially at the same time.
Her environmental portraiture work was been most recently featured in the solo show “Milestones” at the Mercer Public Library in Mercer, Wisconsin, where she was a 2025 Artist-in-Residence. She has also shown her work in the 2024 solo exhibition “Mojave on the Verge” at the Minocqua Public Library and in “CA X WI” at the Susan B. Smith Fine Arts Gallery at the Campanile Center for the Arts. Other local spots which have shown Christina’s work include the Northwoods Gallery at Nicolet College, and Lakeland Area Photographic Club exhibitions at The Rhinelander-Oneida County Airport, Great Northern Coffee Traders in Minocqua, the North Lakeland Discovery Center in Manitowish Waters, and the Presque Isle Community Library in Presque Isle.

About the Collection: Milestones
Milestones is a community-focused exhibit that explores the significant events, accomplishments, stages in life, and achievements that shape and connect people. There are many different milestones explored in this exhibit: the beginning of friendships, the making of discoveries, the unearthing of truths, a return home, a journey onward, a celebration of a new year, and more. Accompanying the milestones shared in this exhibit to provide context are the stories behind the photographs.
The photographs in the Milestones exhibit are crafted in the style of environmental portraiture, which captures a person in their natural environment, and often shows elements of their life, character, work, or interests. The setting is part of the subject’s identity, and helps tell the story about who they are. The exhibit also explores iconography, the visual language of symbols that tell stories, communicate ideas, and reflect cultural identities. The portraits display visual symbols and motifs associated with Wisconsin, with the Northwoods, with tourism, with rural living, and with milestones.
