Cristina graduated with a Bachelor's of Science in Movement Science from The University of Michigan. While at Michigan she volunteered with the men's lacrosse team to gain experience with the athletic training side of rehabilitation. She went on to earn her Doctor of Physical Therapy degree from The George Washington University. Following graduation she worked in an outpatient orthopedic clinic, and excels in post-op, injury care as well as women's health.  

Cristina is a Mom to two children and during her pregnancies, realized the lack of resources surrounding exercise and health for pregnant and postpartum women. One of the driving forces to create PhyAFit was a passion to improve women's health during these phases.  Cristina is the founder of PhyAFit.

  Kristy graduated from Michigan Tech University in 2000 with bachelor degrees  in both Chemical Engineering and Business Administration. After working  for over 5 years as an engineer in the pharmaceutical industry, she made the decision to go back to school to become a physical therapist.  She spent time volunteering in an outpatient orthopedic clinic and knew this career would bring her personal gratification while helping many others.   

She graduated with her DPT from Oakland University in 2010. Since that  time,  she has gained valuable experience working in the acute care setting as well as the outpatient orthopedic setting, treating primarily post-operative diagnoses for the ankle/foot, knee, hip and spine.  Outside of physical therapy, she enjoys spending time with her husband and  three young children, camping and participating in youth sports.
