Christina grew up in the western suburb of Glen Ellyn, Illinois. She graduated from Glenbard West High School in 1986 and in 1990, she received her Bachelor of Arts degree from Illinois Wesleyan University where she majored in English and graduated with honors.
Christina always loved radio, especially talk radio. Now, not many people can say they got their start in radio at Hooters… but, in the summer of 1993, Christina played hooky from her nine-to-five job to attend a remote broadcast of “The Steve Dahl & Garry Meier Show,” which was at a Hooters. Soon after, Steve Dahl gave Christina her first industry job as his office manager. After learning the ropes, Christina began to work for WLUP as a producer for “The Steve Dahl Show” and she continued on as a producer for Steve’s later shows on WMVP and WCKG. Eventually, Christina began to host the “Best of” shows — and she was hooked!
In 1996, Christina was hired by Shadow Broadcast Services as a traffic reporter. Ironically, she started out working for WLS-AM radio on the overnight shift. Over the years you have heard Christina on over 20 Chicago area stations, including WLS, WBBM, WUSN, WCKG, WJMK, WSCR and WIND and she has also reported traffic on television for NBC5.
Christina can be heard once again in the afternoons from 2:00 to 6:00 p.m. on Roe and Roeper.
