Prior to Baird, she worked at a local bank and trust company for 10 years and then at Northwestern Mutual for a few years. She is FINRA Series 6, 7 and 66 licensed. Christine has also expanded her expertise by becoming a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNERTM professional, which she obtained in July 2019. Christine brings great experience in building and maintaining client relationships, along with a broad understanding of behind the scenes investment operations.
She graduated from Marquette University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Spanish for the Health and Business Professions. Her fluency in Spanish is greatly owed to her studies in Puebla, Mexico where she attended UDLA for a semester abroad.
Christine is active in her community both as a lifetime member of Sigma Delta Pi, a national Hispanic honor society, and as a mentor for first-generation college students at Marquette University. Outside of the office, she enjoys spending time with her husband, James, golfing, bowling, and hiking.
