Christine Weeber has felt a connection to the mountains like no other place she’s lived before. She grew up in Grand Rapids, Michigan, before pursuing degrees at Colorado State University (CSU).
During her time there, she moved into a home filled with toxic mold, which made her ill. She moved into a rental with deodorizers in every room, but knew this was not a long-term option.
After graduating from CSU with an MA in cultural anthropology and a graduate certificate in women’s studies in 2005, she decided to move to a cleaner, less-toxic area.
She has since lived just outside Gilpin, also serving as a shamanic healing practitioner for Wisdom Hearth in Nederland. She loves the people, the community, and the connection to nature that they share and embrace.
She has written since elementary school, writing a play in 4th grade, bringing her friends in to perform it, and charging her neighbors five cents to see the performance. She started writing poetry at the age of 16, and she’s also written essays and fiction.
