Her Interview

Ten minutes with Christina

01What do you attribute your success to?

I attribute my success to my faith in Christ and knowing that I am pursuing the purpose God has called me to. Through every trial and challenge, my faith has given me the strength and perseverance to overcome.

02What’s the best career advice you’ve ever received?

The best career advice I’ve received is to never give up, stay persistent, and keep moving forward even when faced with challenges. Not everyone will see things the same way, but maintaining a positive attitude and staying committed to my goals makes all the difference.

03What advice would you give to young women entering your industry?

My advice to young women entering this industry is to seek experience, embrace challenges, and use every obstacle as an opportunity to grow because iron sharpens iron. Stay grounded through prayer and reflection, and learn to surrender the things that hold you back so you can continue to grow personally and professionally.

04What are the biggest challenges or opportunities in your field right now?

The biggest challenge in my field is finding effective ways to use location technology to help families locate and protect their loved ones. The greatest opportunity is raising awareness, sharing a message of prevention, helping save people from trafficking, and providing support through life coaching.

05What values are most important to you in your work and personal life?

The values that are most important to me in both my work and personal life are trust, honesty, and forgiveness. These principles guide how I build relationships, make decisions, and treat others with respect and understanding.
