Pixacom: Where were you born, and how was life growing up?
Christina Pistone: I was born in Valencia, CA. It was a great place to grow up! LA and beautiful beaches close by, as well as Mountain High for snowboarding just a little over an hour away. Couldn't really ask for more.

Pixacom: What nationality are you?
Christina Pistone: ? I am Argentinean and Italian. A pretty tough one to guess! (I don't think anyone has ever gotten it right)

Pixacom: What would the average person say about you?
Christina Pistone: That I am positive, caring, and a freak about animals. I always try to motivate others as well as myself. I'm a big believer in the law of attraction and feel that a positive attitude can take you further than anything.

Pixacom: What kind of stuff did you get into after high school?
Christina Pistone: I worked really hard and kept busy! While taking classes in college I got certified as a personal trainer and became even more involved in the fitness industry. I also worked a few other jobs such as waitressing and working as an airline representative.

Pixacom: How did you get into modeling?
Christina Pistone: It kind of just came to me. I had a friend of a close friend who wanted to get me started in the industry when I was about 19. He set up my first photo shoot with a wonderful photographer and from there I learned how to manage myself, make connections, and learn the business.

Pixacom: How long have you been modeling?
Christina Pistone: About four years, but more seriously in the last two.

Pixacom: How did you feel being in front of the camera for the first time?
Christina Pistone: Surprisingly, very comfortable! I really enjoyed it. My photographer and hair/makeup guys were really great and me feel right at home. I had a blast!

Pixacom: How did you feel walking into your photoshoot?
Christina Pistone: I didn't really know what to expect, so I was a little nervous, but excited!

Pixacom: So would you say you are comfortable now?
Christina Pistone: Definitely. Once you gain experience or even just know what to expect, it comes naturally and is actually really fun.

Pixacom: Would you say you are pretty comfortable with your body?
Christina Pistone: Yes, although I must admit I am always trying to improve certain things or reach new goals (must be the trainer in me). I don't think I could ever see myself as completely perfect, but I am comfortable and thankful for the body that God has blessed me with. Afterall, I am healthy and that's what matters most! ?

Pixacom: What would you say is your best feature?
Christina Pistone: My Heart. I'm a sucker for animals and people in need.

Pixacom: What?s the best thing about being a model?
Christina Pistone: Traveling! I love to travel, learn new cultures, try new foods. It's definitely the best thing about modeling, besides having hair/makeup/and stylists working to make you look beautiful for the day =)

Pixacom: What do you do differently to set yourself apart from other models?
Christina Pistone: Honestly, I don't really think about it. I'm happy to say that I am just Me.

Pixacom: Where do you hope your modeling will take you?
Christina Pistone: I'm not exactly sure to be honest. I just want to be happy and successful in everything I do. Most importantly, I want to make an impact somehow. If I can travel and see the world while I'm at it, great!

Pixacom: Any highlights in your modeling career?
Christina Pistone: I landed a spot as a Top ten finalist in Maxim's 2006 Hometown Hotties contest. I really didn't think much of it or expect to make it that far, so I was surprised when it came time to shoot with them! A great experience overall.

Pixacom: Where can we find you on a typical weekend, if you aren't doing a photoshoot?
Christina Pistone: Spending time with my family, friends, and my boston terrier Oliver. You can also find me at the gym, running errands, or just relaxing and watching a movie/reading a good book.?

Pixacom: What keeps you busy away from modeling?
Christina Pistone: School, work, and my son Oliver (he's a dog!)

Pixacom: What do you want to do outside of modeling?
Christina Pistone: I really want to make a difference in the world. I want to help others and feel like I have accomplished something great in my life. Stopping animal abuse and helping children/families in need is definitely on my list.

Pixacom: Five years from now, where do you see yourself?
Christina Pistone: Happy, successful, married...

Pixacom: What is the coolest thing a fan has ever done for you?
Christina Pistone: A fan? Let's not get carried away here, haha.

Pixacom: Any photographers you enjoy working with or hope to work with?
Christina Pistone: I really enjoyed working with Odette Sugerman for Maxim, she's great! Michael Maples was the first photographer I worked with (and and several times after that) and he's always a lot of fun. I recently shot with Mark Sacro and he just rocks. Looking forward to working with him again in the future!

Pixacom: Do you travel much for your modeling?
Christina Pistone: I used to, but I've cut back since I decided to go back to school to finish up my degree.

Pixacom: Do you like all the traveling?
Christina Pistone: Very much so, it's a wonderful experience! I miss it at times, although being away from my family is a downfall that I definitely do not miss. ?

Pixacom: If you could travel anywhere, where would it be?
Christina Pistone: Wow, there are so many places. Ireland is currently on the top of my list. London, Italy, France, Figi, Australia, Hawaii, and back to Argentina to visit my family would all be nice too :)
