MEET CHRISTINE
Christine Martinez handles public relations for some of San Diego's most respected arts and culture organizations including the Balboa Park Cultural Partnership, Arts+Culture:San Diego, the Institute of Contemporary Art San Diego, San Diego Ballet, the VAPA Foundation (Visual and Performing Arts), Project [BLANK], and Art of Elan. She started in broadcast news as a producer before managing public relations in-house for Orlando Health, M.D. Anderson Cancer Center Orlando and Sharp Healthcare in San Diego. Today, her passion is to connect her clients with local, regional, national and trade media to amplify their work in the community, to garner exposure and political and financial support for their causes.
Christine has strong ties with the local media - her husband is a news anchor - and she is well known in the arts community, having served as the public spokesperson for the advocacy effort for more arts funding through the City of San Diego. She is a huge fan of live theatre and performing arts, and can be seen taking in a concert or a new art installation most weekends with her husband and two children.
