My name is Christina Nielsen. I graduated from Cal Poly Pomona in June 2011 and moved to Madagascar from February 2012 to April 2014 as a Small Enterprise Develepment Peace Corps Volunteer.  I can say now Peace Corps has forever changed me. Since my return to the States, I am attempting to pursue my next dream, attending law school.

A little bit of personal stuff about myself, I am one of four girls, one in a set of triplets. Growing up was anything but normal, there was constant competition in terms of grades, athletic-ness, awards, etc. However, I wouldn’t change if I could. My sisters (both older and same age) have given me the strength and the confidence to follow my dreams. My bachelor’s degree is in Hospitality Management, a little strange for someone looking into a career in law. I am wanting to focus in Labor Law, so they are related. My dream, even if for a summer or an internship, and regardless of the stigmatism surrounding the company, is to work for Toms.

Other random facts: I am a HUGE Taylor Swift fan. I am deathly afraid of heights, but love adrenaline activities. I have already checked off sky diving and zip lining off my Bucket List. I love reality television, and wish I was on any one of them. Survivor looks so easy after spending two years abroad; I can do it CBS! Pick me! Pretty Little Liars is one of my all time guilty pleasures, and for good reason.

I am an open book, so please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions. My email is cmnielsen89 (at) gmail.
