After retiring from working in elder abuse for the County of San Diego for over 22 years, Christine wanted a big change. She wanted a fun job in a positive and creative environment. She moved to Seattle 3 years ago, drawn by the beauty of the mountains and different water ways, in addition to being closer to her parents who live in Oregon. She fell in love with Baleen before even coming to Seattle - loving the modern minimalist design of our jewelry. She settled in the Ballard neighborhood and was so excited to find out "that store" was in her neighborhood! Come by the shop and say hey to Christine :)

Favorite Baleen pieces:

There are so many Baleen pieces I love so kind of hard to say! My favorite designs right now are a lot of the drop earrings from the Sunrise to Demi and love the Stick hug out of the stud earrings

Interests:

In my free time I love to jog, hike, walk/play with my 7 year old Boxer, and paddle board or kayak during the summer.
