After a successful product management career with international software maker RightFax, Cristie co-founded and served as the CEO of Nextrio – an IT services firm that grew to be one of the largest managed service providers in the Southwest. Street successfully led the acquisition of Nextrio by a California-based MSP and served as General Manager for both locations, with over 100 employees around the world. After steering that western-US company to national acquisition in 2023, she opted to exit and return her focus to local interests.

Cristie has received numerous accolades including “Business Leader of the Year” by the Tucson Metro Chamber and “Woman of the Year” by Greater Tucson Leadership. Her involvement with civic organizations includes the Ronald McDonald House Charities, Sister Jose Women’s Center, Tucson Jewish Community Center, Arizona Public Media and the Rothschild Fund for Civic Innovation.

Street holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from North Carolina State University and an MBA from Eller College at the University of Arizona.
