She then sets her private practice in Geneva, where she is still active today. In 2013, she becomes President of the Images and Society Foundation/Eye Watch, having at heart the de-codification of the images surrounding us to help understand their primary purpose and chose better. She also starts a collaboration with Switzerland’s first independent financial revue, Point de Mire, where she writes about psychology in the world of Finance, and works as Psychologist for the Geneva Government. In 2013, she meets Antonio Natale, also known as the Artist of Banknotes and decides to represent him worldwide in an exclusive manner.

In 2022, she starts collaborating with Wise.art, the art platform of WiseKey SA, an International cyber security company quoted on Nasdaq, and takes on new artists for a series of NFTs. Never discouraged and with good resilience, her motto is: “There is nothing we are incapable of doing; all it takes is to put your mind to it and use your resources.” Today, Christine lives in Geneva with her family and where her office is based. This NFT tells the story of a family on the verge of separation and destruction, where the father and the children have alienated the mother. This is the story of manipulation where the victims are all from the same family.
