Christina Marouchou

BIO AND RESUME

I was born in Toronto, Canada, however by an unexpected turn of fate, a.k.a. my parents tricking me into agreeing to move to a place where it’s always sunny as they said, I ended up in Cyprus. In my defense, I was only 5 years old and I hadn’t developed my anti-pushover skills until then. However, they were indeed telling the truth about the sunshine and I also got to fluently learn another language, Greek.

I had always wanted to be an actress so going to drama school after high school for me was a given. But as they say, life happens when you’re making other plans, so before my 18th birthday, I found myself presenting a live TV music show called “@live” after I had been selected through a long process of castings. That’s how presenting came into my life.

While I was a drama student, I kept working as a TV show host and was asked to do a demo for a radio station, Energy 107,6 and after training, I got hired and have had my own radio show since.

Since media had been such a big part of my life, along with my Acting studies, I decided to begin my degree in Communications as well.

I have been working as an actress in theater, television and film since 2008 and have been a radio show host since 2006.
