The years 2002 to 2005 found Christina pursuing her law degree with the University of London while sustaining her modeling career both in Malaysia and in the UK on a freelance basis. She has modeled for brands such as Levi's Jeans, AVON, Wella, Tupperware, Nokia, Tints of Nature and GNC Live Well to name a few. During her time in the UK, she also competed in the UK's Top Model of Colour 2007, where she finished as a Top 20 finalist.

Christina took a 5-year hiatus from the entertainment scene to concentrate on a career in the legal profession after being called to the Malaysian Bar as an advocate and solicitor in 2008. She practiced as a corporate lawyer in a leading law firm in Kuala Lumpur from 2008 to 2013 while simultaneously lecturing part time at a renowned law school in Kuala Lumpur.

In addition to her successful law and teaching career, Christina assumes the position of Malaysian Ambassador for the University of London, since 2007 to present date.

Currently based in New York City, she returns to the entertainment scene with years of experience in two diverse fields ready to break new boundaries.
