Known to enjoy a good glass of wine from time to time, Christine spends most of her free time with her family, which includes an adorable middle school daughter, a superhero husband, a highly energetic Boston Terrier (Alice), and two mischievous cats. She continues to look for a way to effectively use her Bachelor of Arts in German literature to further the credit union cause.
