Senior Fashion Designer
Pink Chicken New York
Age: 36
Bio: Field is a senior fashion
designer in New York City who
credits her Colombian herita-
ge for helping her stay groun-
ded through all of life's cha-
llenges. At an early age, she
connected with the Morris
County Hispanic-American
Chamber of Commerce and
the United States Hispanic
Chamber of Commerce and
has always had a great love for
the chamber and its mission.
She graduated from the
University of Scranton with a
bachelor's degree in psychology
and Spanish while pursuing her
passion of competitive racing
as captain of the cross-country
team. She completed a master's
degree at Columbia Univer
-
sity in counseling psychology
and after graduation became a
counselor to help children and
their families.
But her passion for de-
sign was overpowering. As a
result, she decided to switch
careers and attended Parsons
School for Design to become
a fashion designer. She gained
hands-on experience inter-
ning with Tommy Hilfiger and
Anna Sui, and is the senior
designer for the children's
clothing company Pink Chic-
ken New York where she has
worked for nine years.
Her professional work in
counseling and fashion de-
sign, in addition to her edu-
cational accomplishments,
has afforded her a wide pers-
pective on the impact fashion
has on everyday life and self-
worth. Christina believes fas-
hion is a dedicated mode of
expression that has the ability
to elicit confidence and in-
ner beauty. Her background
in psychology and fashion
has taken her vision to new
depths. Her aesthetic is a so-
phisticated mixture entwined
with a playful twist. Her inspi-
ration stems from earth-tone
colors, vintage fabrics and bo-
hemian silhouettes.
Racing still continues to
be the joy of Christina's life.
She has completed eight ma-
rathons.
WORDS OF WISDOM:
"F
ashion has the unique ability
to be both a vehicle of change
and a creative archive. Having a
global and historical perspective
is essential in the international
industry of fashion."
