Christine Amorose Merrill is a seller of ads, an enthusiastic giver of recommendations, and mom to two lazy pugs and one very funny toddler.

She sells ads, brand partnerships, experiential activations and production on behalf of San Diego Magazine, Clear Sky Collective (CAMP, OpenTable, Post House) and Arcana Audio. You can find more of her experience here.

With deep roots in podcast advertising and a love of creative, compelling and impactful marketing, Christine takes pride in working closely with brands to ensure that they are showing up in the right places and in the right ways for customers. 

After many years as a travel blogger and lifestyle micro-influencer, Christine now shares weekly recommendations on a theme via her What Say Christine Substack, occasional beach/toddler/book photos on Instagram and her 100-books-a-year reading progress on Goodreads.   

She’s very happily based in San Diego—but is always planning a trip! Christine is a member of the Clairemont Garden Tour board as well as a regular hospital and hospice volunteer with her therapy dog Gertrude. When she’s not sending emails, she is (ideally) at the beach, on a hiking trail or reading in the sunshine.
