The Turners

Christina (Amato) Turner '09 and Andrew Turner '08

We met in fall 2006 when our roommates introduced us. We were both Sport and Leisure Management majors with concentrations in Health and Fitness but we had surprisingly never crossed paths in the classroom prior to our introduction that fall. We had a lot of common interests and friends, which made for a great connection. We have been together ever since and married in June 2013. We reside in Hamilton, NY, where we are putting our degrees and experiences at Eastern to great use working for Colgate University. I am the director of recreation and chair of the Physical Education Department, and Andrew is the director of fitness and an assistant strength and conditioning coach for the Athletics Department. We have been here for more than three years, bought a home last year and have a two-year-old dog named Chumlee. Thanks, Eastern, for a great education and bringing us together!
