Jillian Christie

Meet Jillian

I began my skating journey as an individual skater and discovered my passion for synchronized skating in high school. I was a member of the Team Braemar Junior Team for four seasons, where we proudly represented Team USA. During that time, we became two-time U.S. National Champions, competed internationally, and were selected as members of the Junior World Team.

Following high school, I continued my skating career at Miami University, skating on the Senior Varsity Synchronized Skating Team for four seasons. As part of the Senior Team, I earned National silver, bronze, and pewter medals and had the honor of representing Team USA in international competition, in addition to being a part of the Senior World Team in 2016.

I have now been coaching with the Northernettes organization for six seasons, working with teams across all levels including Juvenile, Novice, Junior, and Collegiate. As a member of the Northernettes Coaching Staff, I’ve helped guide our teams to sectional and national medals. Our Junior Team has been part of the Team USA roster for the past five seasons, competing internationally and most recently capturing gold at the Hevelius Cup in Gdansk, Poland.

I am deeply passionate about the sport of synchronized skating and am committed to helping the next generation of athletes grow, achieve, and love the sport. I look forward to another exciting season ahead!

  • 6 seasons coaching with the Northernettes organization.


  • My coaching approach focuses on building strong fundamentals, fostering team chemistry, and developing confident, well-rounded athletes.
