Meet Christine

Entrepreneur, Vocalist, Content Creator, Wife + Mom

An 80s baby and 90s kid born just outside of NYC in Stamford, CT, I'd like think I had a pretty standard childhood. Being very musically-inclined, I took to singing early and spent many years fine-tuning the "triple threat" thing while formally working my way into the music industry. After highschool, I got a BM in Music Business & Management, with a concentration in Entrepreneurship from the prestigious Berklee College of Music, where I attended with a scholarship for voice. Mere days before graduation, I received at opportunity to work at Columbia Records / Sony Music Entertainment in NYC, where I began my career on the business side of the industry, while also pursuing my own musical endeavors outside the office. While it quickly became apparent that the corporate world was not somewhere I'd be able to grow and thrive, I started putting together the pieces of what would end up being my first business venture. 

​

At just 22 years old, I opened a music school and artist development company in my hometown, and began hiring staff and taking clients. The business grew quickly and from there we expanded to offer recording studios and professional marketing and consulting services to independent musicians from all around the world. With a deep passion for sharing the healing power of music, I founded a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization in 2014 and went on to bring music education services to underprivileged children in my community through strategic partnerships with neighboring organizations like the Boys & Girls Club and YMCA.

I brought in over a million dollars in revenue and purchased my first home by 26 years old. I can still remember to this day how many people told me that starting my own business was a bad idea. I am glad I didn't listen, because that choice completely changed the trajectory of my life.

​

In 2020, I had just finished renovating a new studio space and invested a ton of money into the next phase of my business. The thought of marriage and family seemed irrelevant, as my business was my baby. I was determined to be a music business powerhouse CEO. How could that possibly leave time for anything else? But things change and people do too, and thank God for that. My then-boyfriend of 12 years and I decided that our future should be open to more than just work, and I reluctantly accepted the idea of small humans potentially being in my future. We got engaged at this time and began the early phases of wedding planning. 

And just when I thought I saw where my future was headed, COVID-19 hit and the government shut down my business. Everything I had worked for was halted, without any of my control. Within this chaotic time, a lot of breakthroughs were made. Making the choice to not give up, I acquired many new skills and wore lots of different hats in order to keep my companies afloat. Choosing to embrace the changes that were happening rather than let them stifle progress, my then fiancé and I bought a house that summer and had a small wedding surrounded by close friends and family in the fall. Almost a year later to the day, our first daughter was born. My world was instantly changed, and I became extremely passionate about creating a better work/life balance and pursuing a healthier lifestyle for myself and my family. I ended up bringing my entire business operations into a spare bedroom of our home, and established new boundaries that allowed me to evolve into this new phase of life.

Now with our third daughter on the way in three years, I am amazed at how it's possible to design a life around the things that are most important to you, and bring you the most joy. My husband and I are able to care for our children 100% of the time, and run our businesses fully remotely. The days don't matter the same way anymore, because I am done with the grind, out of "the Matrix" for good. I, quite literally, do whatever I want, whenever I want now. And then I thought to myself, why do people not know about this option? Everyone is creative. Everyone has talent and something valuable to offer the world. Everyone can raise their family. Everyone can enjoy a life specifically curated around doing the things they love. And there began my journey to share the things that I've learned to help others break out and find their happiness too.

​

Since becoming a wife and mother, I've continued to run my former business operations, launched new ones, created tons of content, started writing a book, and even embarked on a new solo artist venture - earning over 140 million streams on my very first album release in under 8 months... all from the comfort of my home, completely on my own, while being present for my husband and kids. My life is more full and prosperous than ever before. The lesson in this is to listen to your gut, follow your heart, and don't be afraid to take the road less traveled - for a life few get to experience.

​

So here we are! If you've made it this far into my story, I sincerely thank you for taking an interest and for spending your valuable time here with me. I hope my work brings you inspiration, education, resources, and some laughter too! The journey is what you make of it.
