About Me
Creating a lifestyle that is both healthy and sustainable.
Welcome
I’m So Glad You’re Here!
Welcome to Cristina Fontana Wellness, where every woman’s health and well-being are at the forefront of what I do.
My name is Cristina, and I’ve dedicated my life to fostering holistic wellness, empowering individuals through strategic nutrition, workout support, and a deep commitment to preventive healthcare.
My Journey
Born in the vibrant city of Caracas, Venezuela, and having called Zionsville, IN, home for over 25 years, I’ve woven a rich tapestry of life experiences together with my husband, Daniel, and our three adult children. Our family’s roots in this community are deep and filled with love and shared experiences.
With academic foundations in Radiation Therapy and a Bachelor of Science in Nursing, my career has spanned the specialized fields of oncology, pediatrics, and kidney transplant. This extensive background in healthcare has not only shaped my professional path but also anchored my personal mission to prevent disease and promote holistic health.
A significant milestone on my wellness voyage was when I became a living kidney donor—an act that profoundly transformed my perspective on life and physical well-being. This experience ignited a fiercer dedication within me to understand and teach the principles of bodily care and resilience.
