Christa Barlow

Hi, I’m Christa Barlow, intrepid Northern émigré. I am an East Coast girl, born and bred, transplanted to the Big D — or rather just a little northeast of the Big D — in Rowlett, TX

I am a 40-something mom with two amazingly creative children, two insanely quirky dogs, and a truly patient husband of 18 years. I have worked at everything from being a roller-skating supermarket price checker, singing waitress, and bartender. Though the last 20 years, has found me primarily as a graphic designer. The last 6 as a pastry chef — yeah, still haven’t figured out what I want to be when I grow up.
