Hello. I’m christina rosalie.
I am a strategic consultant and advisor. I’m currently collaborating with innovative tech and web3 startups (like Darkblock, Econia Labs and Somos ) culture-defining brands (like Volkswagen Innovation & Engineering Group and Xbox and creative agencies. Past clients include Nikeland, Spotify, Chewy, Gogoro, Streem, Sonos, Vicis, Electronic Arts, Microsoft, lululemon, Smith Optics, and Boa Systems.
Prior to becoming a full-time strategic consultant I built and lead the strategy team at Skylight Collective, served as Head of Brand at Vacasa (where I led the company’s brand evolution in preparation for the largest Series C funding round in Oregon’s history) and led the strategy practice at Cinco Design. I cut my teeth at JDK Design which is now Solidarity of Unbridaled Labor.
I bring a unique blend of real-world experience and strategic insight, a passion for challenging organizational norms, and the ability to work closely with senior clients and executive leadership.
I’m at my best designing and facilitating workshops for multidisciplinary stakeholders and executive teams, to generate a deeper understanding of emerging landscapes, and position and build products and experiences to meet those futures.
I have an MFA in Emergent Media, and BA in Language, Culture & Identity. My first book A Field Guide To Now, was published in 2012. I've also written essays and stories for Kinfolk, The Sun, and The Los Angeles Review. My art has been featured in shows at First Thursdays In the Pearl, the BCA Gallery and SEABA Gallery.
As a strategic leader and artist, I am passionate about cultivating curiosity, imagination and the conditions for collaboration.
Presently I’m working on many things including a large scale mixed media painting, my second book, and designing an a creative residency/incubator program for tomorrow’s innovators, creators and dreamers. I’m never bored.
