On today's episode, we welcome Christina Greene McAllen! Christina is the founder of her namesake Christina Greene jewelry collection, who was drawn to fashion and jewelry-making long before the company’s start in 2011. From a young age in Houston, TX, she had an eye for arranging and styling everything from outfits and accessories to furniture. For Christina, jewelry-making was a hobby that she loved, and she never imagined that her passion could launch into what it is today. A Texan through and through, Christina knew there was only one place she’d want to headquarter her growing jewelry business. After a season of living in New York City while attending Parsons School of Design and then working in Manhattan, she moved back to Houston to start her brand.
Since its launch, Christina Greene jewelry has been featured by national and local media outlets including PopSugar, the Today Show, The Houston Chronicle, and more. The brand also is very active in charitable endeavors. The Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo, American Lung Association, and Houston SPCA are particularly near and dear to Christina’s heart. We know you'll love this episode!
