Work Wanderings

I’m Christina Wood. I’ve worn a lot of hats, but writer is my favorite, and luckily for me, it’s the one I look best in.

I’m currently a Senior Content Strategist for SunWest Credit Union, but that’s just the latest in my titles. Since joining the weird, wonderful world of marketing in 2019, I’ve been Community Outreach Specialist, Marketing Specialist, and Marketing Manager.

Before becoming a marketer, I was on the full financial end of credit unions, helping members manage their banking accounts and loans, build and repair their credit and acting as their sometimes therapist, as anyone in customer service is at some point.

I’ve worked in 2 different credit unions, a chocolate shop, and a bookstore – all the essentials of life: money, chocolate, books. Not necessarily in that order.

GET IN TOUCH

I’m available for side collaborations, freelance writing, and new opportunities. It’s a great big world, and I want to read, write, and travel my way through it gathering good stories, eating good food, and drinking cheap wine I paid too much for. If that sounds like what you’re looking for, let’s chat.
