About

Politivi Blog is the personal blog of Christopher Calvi.

Christopher grew up in Linwood, New Jersey, a suburb of Atlantic City. He spent his teenage years working as a lifeguard on the Margate City Beach Patrol, and volunteering as an EMT for the Linwood Rescue Squad. After graduating from Mainland Regional High School in 2000, Christopher headed south to the Georgia Institute of Technology where he earned a B.S. in Public Policy. While at Georgia Tech, Christopher was also involved in several campus activities, interned with the legendary Congressman John Lewis, and studied abroad in Belgium and Cuba.

Christopher has worked on political campaigns in numerous local, state, and federal elections. After working in 2004 on the field team of Rep. Allyson Schwartz in Philadelphia, he took a few months off, and then moved out west to sunny Los Angeles.  For nearly five years, he worked for Shopzilla.com, the largest shopping comparison search engine in the United States and served on the board of directors for the 24th Street Theatre.

As of 2010, Christopher has been employed by Adknowledge.com and lives in New York City with his wife, Katie.
