A player for Irene's rival team the “Cardinals” and also coincidentally Irene’s long time crush. She comes off very cool, and elegant but is actually a massive nerd, who’s current obsession is her own mystery book she hopes to publish one day, and her research thesis on a gang of cannibalistic serial killers from the late 1860s.

Biography
Originally from New York, both her mother and father worked for a newspaper. But for a short period of time after Christie's birth neither were fully able to take off work so she mostly lived with her grandma to around 5-6 yo, eventually her mother was able to score a gig that allowed her to write/ work from home. While living with her grandma she was introduced to “Murder, She Wrote” and other older mystery shows and books thus sparking her lifelong obsession with J.B. Fletcher and the mystery genre as a whole.
She moved out of state to go to college down in Michigan, and she now plays hockey for Irene's rival college.

Triva
- Autistic, she has a pretty mean flat affect and struggles to convey, understand, and verbalize her own and other’s feelings. She gets super frustrated if people don't understand what she’s trying to say. Thinks pretty much 24/7 about her special interests and her main love language is violently and passionately info-dumping on others; though she gets super self-conscious about it because she both feels like she’s being annoying, and she struggles to facilitate conversion about other things. Tends to latch onto a specific word or phrase and repeat it over and over.
- Might as well have clown lung from how much dust she’s inhaled in her school’s archives. Speaking of dust, she has a visceral hatred for it.
- Loves to make god awful vintage recipes even though 9 times out 10 they turn out awful.
- Personal beef with most true crime podcasters *insert professionals have standards joke here*
- Into vintage fashion and yet she barely knows how to sew.
- Actually really bad at Clue.
- Pattern seeker, tends to find sorta random connections between things; like how she and Agatha Christie share a name, how Irene shares a name with a few one off characters from her shows as well as her favorite restaurant, or how Skinner kinda looks like one of the men she’s writing her thesis about…
