Originally from New Jersey, Cristina has danced her way south of the border, then west, and finally ending up in California. Cristina danced with Plexus Dance Theatre in Ojai, performing and teaching throughout Ventura County. After a hiatus from the dance world, Cristina returned to school and received her BA in Dance from California State University, Long Beach.

Cristina is happy to be a new member of the Nannette Brodie Dance Theatre this year and is looking forward to an exciting season of performing and teaching.
