Angi Christiansen
(They/THem)
Board Treasurer
Angi Christiansen is a 31 year resident of Flagstaff and, along with their husband, Matt, has raised their 2 children and many pets here. Angi is an advocate of community activism, with a strong belief that the need for a supportive and strong community is more important than it has ever been. Together we can care for all of our people, and bring about the change and growth that is necessary in these coming years.
When not working, hiking, biking, and running the trails of our beautiful mountains, reading, watching movies with family, and cuddling with pets are the things that fulfill Angi, and they are an avid proponent of re-use and living simply.
Angi found their home at Stuck soon after it opened and has reaped the rewards and benefits of Nox’s intuitive talent, years of education, and experience in healing, for almost a decade. Angi feels strongly about the curative strength of acupuncture, most especially in a community setting. In addition, Nox and the clinic staff’s trauma-informed care approach has, and continues to, support the health, well being, and growth of Angi and their family, and countless others. They are beyond grateful to be a part of Stuck, to help others on their journey of healing, and to help Stuck grow in our vibrant community.
