About Me

Cristina was born and raised in Arizona. She became a technician in 2021 and has worked at both the Glendale and Surprise City Center locations that sprouted her love for physical therapy. She graduated from Gateway Community College and received her certification to become a Physical Therapist Assistant in May 2024. From there, she got the opportunity to work with the Spooner Peoria team before coming back to Surprise City Center.

Outside the clinic, Cristina enjoys going to the movies, working out and spending time with her boyfriend, family and friends. Cristina also enjoys reading, making pottery and painting canvases.
