Hi, I'm Christina Cagol, a 30-year-old Miami native who discovered pickleball in Las Galeras, Dominican Republic just five months ago. As a former tennis player, I was immediately drawn to the fast-paced and social nature of pickleball. After returning home to Coconut Grove, Florida, I stumbled upon dedicated pickleball courts just a short walk away and have been hooked ever since. At the Miami Slam, I met Adrian and Miguel from the GIO team and was impressed by their kindness and enthusiasm. After trying out their paddles, I knew I had found my perfect match. I'm thrilled and grateful for the opportunity GIO is giving me to represent and join the GIO team and their amazing brand! Looking forward to sharing my passion for pickleball with others!
