Cristina Williams
Writer.
Cristina Williams is a writer from El Salvador, who relocated to Australia as a child refugee during the civil war. In 2014, Cristina won a Screen QLD one year mentorship award to develop her first rom-com. She has since written prolifically across many genres and trained in screenwriting in the USA with Corey Mandell and Roadmap Writers.
Cristina’s passion lies in creating inspiring comedies and dramas that explore love and relationships within high-concept story worlds. She proudly embraces her Latinx heritage, frequently incorporating Hispanic culture and characters into her content.
Cristina resides in Phoenix, Arizona, with her husband and their Brady bunch of 8 (generally decent) children. She speaks three languages and believes that her life experience as a refugee outsider, mother, and world traveler has fueled her desire to write stories that reveal beauty in dark places and laughter in the storm. Her mission is to tell stories that celebrate the beauty, mess, and magic of human connection, bringing to life stories that leave a lasting imprint on people’s hearts.
Cristina is represented by Jon Taub of CT Media (contact info).
