Bio

Hi there. I'm Christina. I'm a social worker, writer, singer, bartender (depending on the time of day). I currently run the site www.alalanews.org, a humorous take on politics featuring blog posts, podcasts, and music videos. I also write the bartending blog www.chroniclesofabarmaid.tumblr.com, which highlights my ability to make witty banter with people who are painfully oblivious to it.
