Christine’s career began in healthcare technology, where she worked as a developer building systems that directly impacted patients and providers. That early experience sparked a lifelong focus on practical, human-centered solutions. She then transitioned into strategic leadership roles across the enterprise software, retail technology, and payments sectors, demonstrating her ability to lead and drive impactful change.
At Disney, Christine served as a Product Owner for Disney+, contributing to one of the most high-profile consumer streaming products in recent years. At Zynstra (later acquired by NCR), she led project efforts to virtualize point-of-sale systems—transforming how retail systems are deployed and scaled. Today, she leads product solution discovery and integration strategy at Synovus Bank on the Third-Party Payments team, supporting ISVs and merchants through complex payment technology integrations.
With over 21 years of experience across startups and large enterprises, Christine brings a rare blend of technical depth, commercialization insight, and cross-industry perspective. She is especially passionate about making AI more practical for businesses and is committed to helping solution providers—especially those competing with VC-backed players—thrive in a complex market.
Christine also serves on the boards of the Technology Association of Georgia’s Consumer Experience Society and the Consumer Data Alliance, a professional network dedicated to advancing data-driven marketing and analytics, where she champions innovation, education, and leadership development across the Atlanta tech community.
Her journey with RSPA began through the Women Leading Conversations leadership course and continued through the Inspire conference and Women-to-Women (W2W) group. These experiences not only fostered a deep appreciation for the RSPA’s mission—supporting solution providers, advancing innovation, and building a collaborative and inclusive industry-but also strengthened her commitment to these values. It would be an honor and a privilege for Christine to earn your vote and serve this incredible community.
As a Montana native, Christine now resides near Lake Lanier, just north of Atlanta, with her family and cats. If elected, she will bring a strategic, execution-oriented mindset to the board, along with a deep commitment to community and collaboration. Her goal is simple yet powerful: to help solution providers grow, adapt, and lead— together.
