Celia Christensen

REALWEALTH REALTY MANAGER

Celia Christensen's Bio

Celia joined RealWealth in early 2017 as member support staff and is now working on the Investor Relations team. She's also managed to sneak her way into editing many of the articles on our website because (as she puts it) she's "a total weirdo and likes grammar" (she earned her degree in Technical Writing from Utah State University -- old habits die hard). When she's not on the phone with RealWealth members, Celia teaches private music lessons (piano, violin, and viola) to students in her hometown of Bozeman, Montana. Although these two jobs keep her plenty busy, she also manages to find time for her other loves: baking, running (to offset the love of baking), and spending time with her husband and four kids, two dogs, and their desert tortoise, Esteban.
