Bio:
Christina Barkley has had a love for writing since childhood and pursued screenwriting with a film degree from Cal-State University Long Beach.
After working various jobs in the film industry and discovering a new joy for weight training, God led Christina to make a complete career change. In 2012, she became a personal trainer beginning at Equinox South Bay in Los Angeles. Later in 2018, she and her husband, Seth, also a personal trainer, created Dogged Strength. Together, they enjoy helping clients from all walks of life realize their physical potential despite any adversity.
She is certified in pre/post-natal exercise and senior fitness. In 2020, she became a certified nutrition coach through Precision Nutrition.
Christina volunteers through the Revelation Wellness ministry as one of their instructors providing free workout classes for her local community. She urges participants to celebrate their bodies and thank Jesus for their abilities.
In recent years, Christina has recently decided to fuse her passions for fitness and creative writing. She is an active member of the California chapter of the American Christian Fiction Writers and is currently working on a Christian fiction fitness novel.
Christina hopes to inspire readers to grow spiritually in their faith while improving their physical fitness through exercise. You can find out more at her website.
