Christie VanDuzer grew up on a farm in Pulaski, New York, with eight other siblings. After working for many years in fast food and pharmacy stores she decided at the age of forty to go to college and earn an associate's degree in paralegal. She worked for a not-for-profit law firm for nine years before leaving the firm to work as a contracted paralegal for private attorneys from home while caring for her eight grandchildren, six of whom she now has temporary custody of. Christie started a non-profit community organization to battle the rampant crime in her neighborhood in 2014. After becoming born again on Easter 2016, the idea of creating Sights and Insights came to her, for a greater work she was called to accomplish for God's kingdom.
