Relationship Building

Hi, I’m Christine! I manage all things project management, account management, and email marketing at Seventh Scout. I live and breathe by my to-do list and Google Calendar, and if you’ve ever been on a Zoom call with me, you know even my bookshelf is color-coded. For me, it’s all about creating clarity. Clarity gives people direction, keeps projects moving forward, and creates the space for better collaboration. Because the best work happens when people feel heard, understood, and connected on the same goal!

I’m a born and raised southerner who graduated from The University of North Texas where I studied marketing and—plot twist—theater arts. What drew me to the arts was the magic of collaboration: bringing together a group of people who hold a blend of unique strengths to tell a collective story. While in college, I also discovered my passion for marketing, which allows me to do the same kind of work, just in a slightly different context.

Before becoming a Scout, I spent my career in marketing and communications with a variety of companies in the nonprofit and education sectors. I worked to tell brand stories and drive audience engagement at multiple theaters across North Texas and other education organizations serving K-12 students of all kinds. During my time at these companies, I loved being able to boost brand visibility in a way that doesn’t just turn heads but drives meaningful conversions.

I currently live in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, but I will also use any excuse to travel to new places. A band I love has a show in another city? I’m there! I have a long layover in a state I’ve never been to before? Perfect! I always look forward to exploring new places and learning a thing or two along the way. When I’m not traveling, you can find me hanging out with my family and friends, reading a new book, or practicing yoga.
