CHRISTINA GJELSTEN

After a pilgrimage to Norway to explore her heritage, Christina knew she was meant for the educational tourism industry, and made the leap from shopper marketing to GEEO. Growing up with a last name that was often preceded by hesitation and a look of confusion when read aloud, she had an inherent curiosity to learn about other cultures outside of her American upbringing, in pursuit to be unfazed by differences like uncommon names.

She is an alumna of the University of Arkansas where she studied Advertising and Public Relations. When she’s not exploring nearby trails or cheering for the Razorbacks, you can likely find her engrossed in a Pinterest board, planning her next trip.
