What's the Story?

Explore Christine's biography and history to learn more about her mission and how Zen Money was developed.

Educational History

Christine began working in the construction industry at the young age of 19, growing from a bookkeeper into project estimation and project management by the age of 22. At the age of 25, Christine attended Strayer University to pursue her career further into accounting, majoring in economics and minoring in psychology. While attending college, Christine developed her business mission. She discovered that the main key point for any business to succeed with longevity was to take accounting to the next level, one step further, where it's not just numbers on paper, but a starting point to successful operational processes. The mission was to allow accounting and economics to finally complement each other, where the past could accurately predict the future, and where those future statistics would ultimately predict consumer behavior.


Christine did not stop there, she took her education to the next level, she studies philosophy and literature as a hobby. She became intrigued by the accuracy of how our psychological mindset ultimately allows us not just to succeed with health but to succeed with others. A healthy mind, body, and soul are the main strategies in being able to execute accuracy, efficiency, and success that is long-lasting!

The Art of War

Life is a journey, full of life-changing lessons. Although Christine has experienced many, she was able to overcome everyone, completely alone, using the very method that ultimately became her niche. Mindset over everything; the ability to control emotions allows the ability to share compassion no matter what the environment or situation. Christine attended boarding school in Milano and Genova, Italy, from the age of 4 to 13 years. She studied dance and art, ultimately transitioning into her ability to be creative and provide lucrative problem-solving skills.


Dancing and art encouraged Christine to master her mental agility and resilience through;

  • divergent (multiple solutions to one problem) and convergent (a single solution to one problem) critical thinking,
  • accurate decision making (from initial to final execution),
  • lateral thinking (problems from unconventional angles),
  • experimenting and resilience (the ability to embrace mistakes as opportunities for growth and further unexpected discoveries),
  • visual-spatial reasoning (the ability to visualize solutions and tackle complex challenges),
  • reduction of fear of failure (the ability to take risks with confidence),
  • intuitive reasoning (the ability to quickly change hats, easily adaptable to new perspectives),
  • agility in shifting perspectives (opens the ability to find new solutions when faced with repetitive problems),
  • cognitive flexibility (the ability to consistently adapt),
  • spatial awareness (ability to quickly learn or develop new techniques),
  • excellent memory and concentration (memorizing processes, staying in the flow with retention and focus),
  • improvisation (the ability to creatively adapt in new environments),
  • no stress and mental clarity (a relaxed and clear mind on a personal level is the key to being equipped to tackle business problems)


Throughout Christine's personal and business life, she has excelled in learning and educating others on how to find peace and maintain it. Peace is a difficult aspect of life, as we know life throws us lemons all the time, but how do we produce from such sour effects? Christine discovered that consistently using a positive mindset is the overall solution, the ability to control emotions, and to use those lemons of life lessons to grow instead. Growth is truly an important aspect for every entity, from toddlers to businesses. Without growth, we would stay stagnant, and life would ultimately outgrow every entity. Therefore, problems are sometimes required to learn how to grow, change, and flexibility is required to succeed with longevity.


Christine teaches strategies on how to welcome challenges; instead of retreating, these strategies help keep the mindset positive and the business flowing with little to no damage from growth. Challenges are not a negative, but a positive!


Christine uses techniques that some would say are more war-driven, not so much in a physical way but more so psychologically. How do we fight off negative thoughts that stagnate us? How do we thrive in business with bottlenecks and general everyday problems? The strategy is to ensure everyone is in the right chair, that everyone has the right tools, that everyone is heard, and that all those pieces come together in full operation. This will allow workers to be a peace with themselves, happy to produce at work, and eager to overcome challenges that come with growth. The mind is powerful if it is at peace, clear, and healthy; only then can it be willing to challenge life's lemons. Thus, teamwork, team meetings that produce results are key to business structure; they develop a strong alliance within the organization where there is little room for failure and much room for growth and success.


Christine learned these techniques by overcoming many life-altering obstacles that she turned into growth, resilience, and now into Zen Money! With all of those trials, she wants to share her techniques with your business and organization, because ultimately, your success is hers!

What's the mission?

Ultimately, the mission is to drive peace within business environments. This technique would open the door for more employment, open the door to business funding, and open the door to time slowing down. The business world lacks funding for growth, people lack employment, and time is running out. It is factual, "high-stress business environments will disrupt cash flow, lower employment opportunities, and speed up time". The mission is to slow things down, so there is a higher function in successful production and growth. Quality over quantity is real in terms of cash flow; if a business isn't efficient and flowing effortlessly, cash flow is consumed, and liabilities ultimately devour the business. As a whole, it disrupts the entire market and economy.


Christine's mission is not to just take money and move on to the next; her mission is to ensure your business thrives and maintains its position in the market. Competition does not impact the market's ability to grow into a larger share; the focus needs to shift from competition to the business itself. The true meaning of business competition is who can do it best, not who else is doing it best! Digging further into true economics, the market share is based on how many businesses can produce a quality service or product that is in high demand, it is not just based on who is in the market share, Christine focuses on getting that product or service to be high demand through quality verse wasting time trying to figure out the brother or sister competitor within the same market. The strategy is to increase the market size, not throw businesses out of the market. The bigger the piece, the higher the demand, the higher the demand, the more valuable your business becomes!
