Hi! I’m Christianne Grist the Administrative Assistant for the School of Fine and Performing Arts (SOFPA) here at Shorter University. I’m here to help the Department with anything they need! I graduated from Shorter University in 2021 with a BA in Communication Studies-Digital Productions and a Minor in Spanish. I also have an MFA in Creative Writing from Reinhardt University (2025). During my undergrad, I was heavily involved in Shorter’s theatre and music programs, and I am so excited to be in a position to work alongside all the amazing staff and faculty here. Shorter absolutely changed my life and helped me grow personally and spiritually. I feel incredibly blessed to be working at a university that truly cares about their students’ success. Feel free to contact me with any questions about our programs, the audition process, or what it looks like to be a SOFPA Hawk! You can consider me your biggest fan! Can’t wait to meet you!
