Christina Podles
Design Assistant

Christina serves as a Design Assistant at Tracy Lynn Studio, bringing her expertise to support lead designers in all aspects of design development. From selecting materials and sourcing furniture and lighting to drafting floorplans, and with a particular affinity for creating beautiful design presentations, she adds a wealth of expertise to the Studio team.
Christina holds a bachelor’s degree in interior architecture with a minor in sustainable design from Endicott College. Originally from Massachusetts, she moved to sunny San Diego seeking a warmer climate and new opportunities. Before fully dedicating herself to interior design, Christina accumulated years of experience in the commercial real estate sector, where she honed her skills in graphic design and marketing. In 2019 Christina’s passion for design was reignited, leading her to work with several residential design firms throughout San Diego. She found her way to Tracy Lynn Studio through Instagram, where she instantly connected with the Studio’s aesthetic and design style.
Christina’s design philosophy emphasizes timelessness. She excels at creating enduring spaces with a neutral foundation, adding character and color through carefully chosen accessories. Her inspiration often comes from notable designs, such as Kelly Wearstler’s Santa Monica Proper, as well as her travels, including a transformative study-abroad experience in Florence, Italy.
Outside of her design work, Christina enjoys spending quality time with her husband and their dog. They love outdoor activities like hiking, camping, skiing/snowboarding, and beach excursions, and look forward to international travel in the future.
