Cristina has spent 20 years at the intersection of people, technology, and social change. As an early hire at Change.org, she led a machine learning pilot that scaled campaign victories 3× and helped grow the platform from 6M to 15M users. At Holu Hou Energy, she managed a $60M operating budget and a $300M project portfolio for 5,000 U.S. military homes — gaining firsthand operational exposure to where community signal and stakeholder coordination break down in real clean energy deployments. A Stanford GSB Sloan Fellow, she drives Pythia's business strategy — shaping the model, the market positioning, and the customer relationships that will determine how it scales.

Maryruth has spent a decade getting credible signal out of high-stakes, politically complex environments where conventional consultation fails.

A widely published author and speaker on gender, security, and climate — with work appearing across academic, policy, and multilateral channels — she holds a Harvard MA in International Relations with a focus on strategic and climate security. Maryruth designed Pythia's research architecture and leads product strategy and operations.
