Kristina Ilagan

I had the pleasure of working with Christine on several projects during our time together on University of Nevada, Reno's Kappa Phi Lambda board. She is a self-starter who thinks of new ways to approach problems. Christine creates opportunities for her to grow by learning new skills and stepping into different roles. While working with her, our organization was able to achieve our goals while defining our brand. Her ability to overcome challenges with a smile made her stand out as a cut above the rest!

Christine is extremely detail oriented and reflective of the work she does. Her work ethic and drive to exceed her daily work streams is evident in the quality of work she produces and how well she executed projects. She is making her mark in society as a young, female, Asian-American professional which drives her purpose for many things she does in her work and life in general. Christine is a hard-working, well-rounded role model for her surrounding network and I believe her skills in relationship building, design, marketing, communication, and various technical skills would be an asset to any company or organization along with her open-mindedness to diversity, equity and inclusion in the work place.
