The Michael Calderin Show with co-host Vanessa Reyes and guest Christine Cruz!

Christine Cruz lives in Miami, Florida. Christine is author of a new book entitled "Aging with Hope" a heartfelt true story about the power of love and what it's like caring for aging family members. There are so many books about new parenting but very few books written about the journey of caring for older family members and the importance of capturing those memories. Christine is a familiar face as she has been anchoring local news in South Florida for the past 24 years.

Christine graduated with high honors from Florida International University where she earned a Bachelor of Science in Communication. She was Valedictorian of her high school class, and was crowned Miss Miami in 1995.

Christine loves running, singing, learning Tik Tok dances with her daughter Leah, playing fetch with Lucy, her German Shepherd, wathcing the Mandalorian with her son Lucas, and cheering on her husband Frank's college football team.
