| Nominated for an Emmy and chosen as ”Boston's Best Meteorologist” by Improper Bostonian magazine, Christine's work as a Meteorologist, Science reporter, television host, and actor has taken her across the US and back again at top rated television stations including Fox News Channel, KABC in Los Angeles , NBC in Boston and CBS and FOX in Minneapolis. | |||||||||||

She also "reports" from Wisteria Lane for the TV series Desperate Housewives.
Christine grew up on California's Central Coast and in Zambia, Africa where her parents were missionaries. At the age of five, the sound of torrential rain hitting the sheet metal roof and echoing off the mud brick walls and floors of her family's home was deafening and frightening. That fear grew into a fascination with the forces of nature. Since then she has climbed mountains as high as 22,842’, kayaked solo through the Apostle Islands on frigid Lake Superior, bicycled from San Francisco to Los Angeles along the Pacific Coast Highway and traversed the Sierra Nevada alone. She is a certified Meteorologist with a B.S. in GeoScience and has earned the coveted AMS and NWA seals of approval. Christine has been writing, directing, producing and performing for as long as she can remember. She has trained constantly in the performance arts for more than 2 decades and has appeared in countless theater productions, musicals, national commercials, and award-winning independent films. In recent years she pioneered the first weekly television series about skiing and snowboarding to air on a major US network, produced a TV pilot in which she lead 6 novice women to the summit of a 14,000’ peak, and she interned for Jennifer Aniston's directorial debut , "Room 10" starring Kris Kirstofferson and Robin Wright Penn. She is currently producing the independent feature film titled “Minneapolis” which pits two comically mismatched news anchors against the elements of Minnesota weather, Midwestern values, and of course…each other. Christine leads the Girls in Science program for Fox 9 News and has mentored for many years with Bolder Options and The Orphan Foundation of America. |
