Bio:Christin grew up in Suffern, NY, the middle child of three girls. As a kid she was always outdoors hiking or playing sports. She played softball and tennis throughout high school, and pitched at the University of Tennessee, Chattanooga.
Her greatest love from the time she was little was Jesus! God gave her the gift of a Christian mom and grandma, and they instilled that loving relationship in her since before she can remember. Her relationship with God shaped and sustained her in everything she did in school and in sports. It has continued to be her number one passion as she and her husband minister together at All Souls Community Church in Suffern.
She has been married for 19 years to her best friend, Will, and they have three fantastic kids, Eva, Liam, and Noah, who are thrilled to be part of the EC community!
