Pitching since she was 10 years old, Christina brings 20+ years of high-level fastpitch experience to the table, both playing competitively & coaching. After college, Christina lived and worked in Minnesota, in everything from cold-calling, advertising, and corporate sales. In addition, Christina led a large fastpitch academy on the side for several years there as well.
Christina played on multiple local competitive A teams, including the Power, Diamonds, Expos, Stampede & Cardinals. She also led her St. Anne’s and Holy Family High School teams, holding an impressive resume with countless tournament MVP awards and consistently led teams with lowest ERA & batting average year-after-year.
With multiple D1 full-ride scholarship offers, Christina elected to attend DIII College of Saint Benedict/St John’s University in Minnesota 2003-2007. She had a very successful freshman year, winning Rookie of the Year across all sports, and her 4-years as team leader were exceptional with a cumulative career 1.9 ERA & .342 BA, becoming the first pitcher to secure a #3 spot in the batting order in the college's history.
Moving back to Denver in 2010, Christina is glad to be home and back in the softball community again. Her intention in coming home was to inherit here father’s local independent insurance agency, Gardner Insurance; however, as her academy grew, she took the leap to go after working at Evolved Fastpitch full-time.
