Meet Our Staff
Christina Petit
President/CEO
I am Christina Petit, and my WHY is that “I live to quietly influence positive change in my community”. I am a lover of connecting people to people, people to resources, and resources to the Community. This is what drives me.
I serve as the President & CEO of the Post Falls Chamber and couldn’t love what I do more! We have a wonderful Community in North Idaho and it’s my personal mission to keep this the beautiful place it is to live, work and play. I have over 25 years of experience in business administration, sales, marketing and community involvement. I am also a proud graduate of the 2015 River City Leadership Academy, the BEST class ever!
It was a pleasure to serve on the Board of Directors for the Post Falls Chamber of Commerce for three years from 2013 to 2016. During that time, I also chaired the Post Falls Tourism Committee. Over the past 18 years in North Idaho, I was lucky to serve on a number of community boards, including as President of the Jacklin Arts and Cultural Center, Vice President of the Inland Northwest Business Travel Association (INBTA), North Idaho State Fair Board of Directors, Founder and President of the Kootenai Lodging Association, the Business Development Committee for the West Plains Chamber and on the board of the North Idaho Tourism Summit. I currently serve on the North Idaho State Fair Board as an alternate and I am a proud has member of the Post Falls Rotary Club.
In my free time, I love all things outdoors. You could say I am a bit of a sun worshipper. When I am not camping with my tiny teardrop trailer, hiking in the local mountains or kayaking our beautiful waters; I am spending time with family and friends. Life is beautiful!

She went to Washington State University, where she earned a degree in Strategic Communications, along with minors in Business Administration and Digital Technology & Culture. While at WSU, Bridget was not only focused on her studies but also played for the women’s soccer team, where she had the honor of being team captain for three years.
