• Ph.D. - Capella University
• M.A. - University of Calgary

Her scholarly focus on environmental and social justice is informed by primatological studies of semi-free-ranging snow monkeys in Texas, emphasizing the evolutionary parallels between primate and human societies. She applies these insights to address human sustainability, marginalized populations, and global challenges.

Christine’s publications span judicial outcomes in parental alienation cases, ethnographic narratives on family dynamics, and international collaborations involving women academics. Her work bridges biological and cultural anthropology with legal and social sciences.
