Christina is one of the best brand
marketers I've worked with. She's often way too modest about that though, because this raw talent is buried in a mix stellar integrated marketing and management skills. That said, every time we partner, collaborate and make something together, I learn from her. Christina is an always-on learner continuing to push the boundaries of marketing and marketing teams. Just want you want in a CMO.

CCO, It's That Simple
Christina is much more than a
marketer she is a strategic leader that leads cross functional meetings and keeping projects moving in the correct direction. As part of the SLT, Christina played a leading role in evolving our company strategy to pivot our resources and go-to-market focus to retail, which support the expansion of 10K+ new TDPs in 1 year. Christina defines the role of leader with her ability to recognize a resource constraint environment, looking for and finding
solutions that supported the
marketing needs, while supporting the sales organization to drive revenue, ultimately creating 1+1=3 solutions.

Christina is an overall champion of her peers and employees. She pushes people to think smarter, and she does so in a way that inspires confidence and growth. I am extremely grateful to have been able to learn from her strategic thinking and guidance by being a member of her team. She has encouraged me to be confident in my input, to stand up for great work and to recognize when to ask for more. I hope I can work with her in the future – there is a lot to learn from her!

What is there to say about Christina? Plenty. She's hands down one of the top managers I've had in my professional career. She's incredibly strategic, smart, resourceful and a strong leader. What you won't see on her resume, however, is the passion that she brings to her team. She's generous with her time for direct reports, an inspired trainer, and always a person first. I can't say enough about how she supports and fights for her people and develops the strengths of her direct reports in a creative and thoughtful way. I truly hope to have the opportunity to work for Christina again...until then, count yourself lucky if you do!

Product Strategist
Christina has the unique ability to approach a brand, project or task both from a 10,000 foot view and from the perspective of the boots on the ground - an amazing (and rare) talent. Her deep knowledge and genuine passion about brands, campaigns and projects makes her a true pleasure to work with. Christina also understands how to bring a campaign to life and how to get the best out of media, PR and owned platforms/extensions. She is the real deal!

I had the privilege of working on Christina’s team during my rotational program at Abbott Nutrition International. After a few weeks, I started referring to her as my marketing mentor and I am not alone - her other mentees are all over the world. Christina has coached numerous countries’ marketing teams on brand architecture, brand positioning, retail activation and digital execution. She is a marketing expert and creative genius - I am honored to have had the opportunity to work for her. In fact, I still seek her advice on national marketing campaigns and tactics today. With her insight and experience every global brand team will benefit and needs her.
