Christine Magnuson
Christine Magnuson’s swimming career saw her amass a total of five medals, two of which she won during the 2008 Olympics in Beijing. After becoming an award-winning Olympian, Christine decided to step out of the pool and enroll at the University of Arizona.
Most expected Christine to continue flourishing as a competitive swimmer, but instead, she focused on mastering the art of sales. Christine would eventually grow to become the solutions engineer at Salesforce, a software company that provides cloud solutions to businesses and individuals everywhere. Her decision to make the drastic change from sports to engineering turned out to be one of the best things she ever did.
