Ms. Cristina was raised in Alexandria, Virginia. She earned her Bachelor’s degree in Communications and Media Studies in Lugano, Switzerland, and has worked in several roles in the corporate environment. Four years ago, she decided to switch gears and started her career in early childhood education working with 2 and 3-year-olds. During this time, she fell in love with teaching as she found it rewarding to see her students grow and develop new skills. She is pursuing her Masters in Early Childhood Education online at Arizona State University. She is excited to join St. George’s community and looks forward to bringing her talents to the Yellow Room!
