Background
As a professionally-trained journalist, writer and editor with degrees from McGill University and the University of King's College's School of Journalism, and more than
12 years of clips under her belt, writing is more than a career for Christie -
it is a way of life.
She has been taking notes on life and keeping records for as long as she can remember, with notebooks stacked to the ceiling in both her homes.
Christie has completed Level I of the Wine Spirit Education Trust and participated in the Writing With Style workshop at the Banff Centre.
Wordsmithing - in her native tongue or her adopted second language of Spanish - is her grand passion.
