Meet the team

Hi, Christine here!

Canon Collaborative was officially launched in the late summer of 2020 — and had been emerging since 2012, when first learning about my strength put me on the road to healing from intense burnout. My background is layered with the legal industry, winery operations, and humanitarian efforts abroad. It is clear that my strengths and experiences have led me to this work, and it is my greatest honor to be your Strength Guide.

Our nature-inspired framework has received international recognition in humanizing the Constructal Law of physics. It is my belief that connecting people to their inner strength and nature is a pathway to honoring the nature that surrounds us: people and the planet.

Learn more about the heart of our work and reach out to begin your partnership in establishing a foundation of strength in your ecosystems.
