Christine has also graced the decks in London, Edinburgh, Prague, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Diego, and Baltimore as well as at numerous D.C.-area venues.

A seasoned radio DJ, Christine hosted the acclaimed show "Variety Is the Spice of Life" on the University of Maryland's WMUC (88.1 FM and online) for more than 15 years.
