Cristine calls Cleveland, Ohio home and works seasonal full time at The Cleveland Play House. She also lends her sewing, draping and designing skills as needed at Sweet Lorain Vintage Store, Karamu House, Seat of the Pants Productions and other homegrown projects as they find her. She has the privilege to return to the Chautauqua Opera Company for her 18th season. She rarely has the opportunity to be unattached from her sewing machine, but when she does she enjoys a good fantasy and/or historical book, antiquing, and baking. She misses traveling like she used to, so hopefully in the coming year she can find time to see old friends and explore new places.
