Cristina Ledra
Cristina is a Toronto native and has called Florida home since 1996. She is a former sports staff writer at the Palm Beach Post, Tampa Tribune, St. Petersburg Times and Charlotte Sun-Herald, and picked up a handful of awards in the process. After graduating from Florida State in 2003, she moved all over Florida but lived in the Bay Area the longest. She will always hold a special place in her heart for Jonny Gomes, her all-time favorite Ray, and a special place in her dresser drawer for her Jonny Gomes Day T-shirt, direct from Petaluma, Calif. She is a lover of hockey, football and baseball and will occasionally take in some hoops. She is a sucker for defense, speed and great pitching match-ups. Just don't ask her about her Buffalo Bills. She might cry.
