Christine Barron, CPA
Tax Manager
Christine joined Pantana as a Tax Manager in December 2024, bringing a practical approach to tax planning and a knack for making complicated topics easier to understand. She helps business owners and individuals navigate tax compliance and plan ahead, because the best tax surprises are the ones you avoid. A proud Kennesaw State University graduate, Christine earned her BBA in Accounting in 2008 and became a licensed CPA in 2013, and she has worked with several public accounting firms throughout metro Atlanta.
A Georgia native, Christine lives in West Cobb with her husband, Blake, and their daughters, Genevieve and Lorelei. Outside the office, you’ll often find her cheering from the sidelines at her daughters’ games, cooking for family and friends, or unwinding with a good puzzle. She’s also a devoted Braves fan and always happy to catch a game.
What song do you sing along with in the car? I love country and the classic rock I grew up listening to with my dad, but these days my daughters hijack the radio. So I sing along to whatever they’re playing, mostly for the fun of embarrassing them!
What would you treat yourself to with $100? Give me $100 and a free afternoon, and I’m calling a friend for margaritas, queso, and guac at my favorite Mexican spot!
What’s a book, movie, or TV show you enjoyed recently? Elf is my all-time favorite. Buddy’s enthusiasm never gets old. I’m always up for a good romantic comedy, a musical, or a true crime rabbit hole!
