Meet Our Team

Born and raised in Los Angeles, CA, Christina moved to the Coachella Valley in 2012 to follow her dream of working in the animal field. She started out as a receptionist at a local animal hospital and moved her way up to a veterinary assistant as well as a practice manager. Christina has 3 dogs, Kaylie an 11-year-old Maltese with an attitude, Piper an 11-year-old Pit Bull who loves everyone and Bentley a 13-week-old golden retriever she has waited her whole life for, you can see him on our website. She also has a 3-year-old cat named Oliver that she rescued off the streets at just a few weeks old and 2 mice that are just the sweetest. When Christina is not working, she loves taking her two sons Noah 15 and Connor 9 on trips to the local zoo as well educational trips to aquariums and animal parks. She visits the local shelters at least once a week with her boys so that they can interact with the pets there and give them treats in hopes to make them more social while they wait for their forever homes. Christina is passionate about making sure that your pet gets the care that they need and will go above and beyond to help you get them there. She can not wait to meet you at El Paseo Animal Hospital!
