Christina Jones, CAPP, MBA is a Consultant in Walker’s Denver office. She has long been driven by a desire for meaningful work, whether through her volunteer work promoting STEM skill development among young women and at-risk youth, her involvement with IPMI, PIPTA, SWPTA, and WTS, or by providing parking planning services to support right-sized solutions that strive to optimize community space and resources.
Her skills include parking demand modeling and analysis, transportation demand management analysis, and strategic parking planning for a wide variety of clients including municipalities, airports, higher education and healthcare institutions, sports and entertainment facilities, and private developments large and small. Her project experience includes shared parking modeling, GIS-based supply and demand mapping with movement and enforcement impacts, and financial feasibility modeling and analysis.
A third-generation parking professional, Christina literally grew up in the parking industry. She learned to drive in her grandfather’s parking garages on a propane-powered sweeper and spent summers with her grandmother and father in the office learning the administrative aspects of the family business. Her first job was working as a parking ramp attendant/cashier, moving into front line management before graduating high school, and system management while working on her bachelor’s degree from Mount Mercy College. After leaving the industry for a time, she returned to Iowa to complete her master’s degree from the University of Dubuque and during this time worked as a parking analyst on a part-time, contracted basis. Upon graduation she jumped back into parking full-time as a planning analyst. In her free time Christina enjoys spending time exploring the Front Range with her dog, Kinnick.
