Spotlight Featuring. Christina Olson, Chief Title Officer, Magnus Title Agency
In this week’s Her. the Title Collective spotlight, we’re proud to introduce Christina Olson—an industry trailblazer, mentor, and sunshine-loving title pro with a story as rich as her 35-year career in title insurance. Christina’s journey has taken her from filing microfiche at her mom’s office during school breaks to leading as Chief Title Officer at Magnus Title Agency in Phoenix, Arizona.
Rooted in Legacy, Rising with Purpose.
Christina’s introduction to the industry began at Stewart Title, where her mom worked. “I filled microfiche and made copies,” she recalls. After serving in the military and attending college, she returned to the title world full-time. “I didn’t plan to make a career out of it, but life had other plans—and I’m grateful it did.”

Over the last 13 years with Magnus Title, Christina has grown from Title Manager to her current leadership position. Her drive to lead with purpose and uplift others is evident in every role she’s taken on.
Two Women, Two Styles, One Inspired Leader.
When asked about her mentors, Christina shares the impact of two very different—but equally inspiring—women. “One led with empathy and respect. She taught me that I didn’t always need the answer, just the ability to find it. The other showed me how to take charge and get things done.” Their combined influence helped shape her into the dynamic leader she is today.
Finding Her Voice—and Encouraging Others to Find Theirs.
As a former Army military police officer stationed in Germany, Christina learned early on how to navigate male-dominated environments. That experience prepared her to handle tough conversations and stand up for herself. Her advice to women just entering the industry? “Speak up early. Your voice matters. Say what you want—or don’t want. And find someone you trust to back you up.”

Excellence Isn’t a Solo Pursuit.
Christina’s “why” is grounded in her relentless pursuit of excellence—not just for herself, but for those around her. “I cultivate a network of mentors—my lifelines—whose guidance has helped me navigate challenges,” she says. “I also make it a point to work with people who are curious, passionate, and ready to grow.” This circle of excellence is at the heart of her leadership philosophy.
“When we empower each other, we rise together.”

On Facing Aggressors with Grace.
Christina believes dignity is the best response to confrontation. “Do not mimic aggression. State your position clearly, and if needed, bring it to leadership. No one deserves disrespect.” Her advice is practical—and powerful: “Speak up. Every woman deserves to feel safe and heard.”
Building a Legacy of Empowerment.
Ask Christina what she hopes her legacy will be, and her answer is simple yet profound: mentorship.
“I want to be remembered for inspiring and teaching others. Empowerment is my word—because when people are empowered, leadership and creativity flourish.”
Sunshine, History, and the Black Angels.
When she’s not leading title teams or mentoring the next generation, you’ll likely find Christina soaking up the Arizona sunshine. She’s an avid hiker, camper, and history buff with a love for the American Revolution and mystery novels. And if the Black Angels are playing nearby, you just might catch her at their concert, channeling her inner rock fan (her first concert? Foreigner!).
Her Family, Her Foundation.
At the core of Christina Olson’s strength is a foundation built on love, loyalty, and genuine connection. “My husband is my biggest fan,” she says. “He’s my constant encourager—always reminding me of my worth and pushing me forward, especially when things get tough.”
Her children continue to inspire her daily. “I strive to lead by example, to be someone they’re proud of. They’ve seen me navigate challenges and stay grounded in my values, and I hope that shows them how to lead with heart and courage.”
Christina also credits her close-knit circle of women friends—her “village”—with keeping her grounded. “They are my sanity and joy,” she says. “Through game nights, hikes, laughter, and real talk, we help each other stay centered and strong.”

Surrounded by family, mentors, and friends, Christina thrives in a support system that lifts her up—and fuels her mission to do the same for others.
Final Thoughts from Christina.
“Women have always been agents of change. As a collective, we need to stay informed, define our values, and be conscious mentors to those around us. I’m so grateful that Her. the Title Collective is part of that mission.”
Thank you, Christina, for reminding us that leadership is about lifting others as you climb. Your legacy of empowerment is already making waves—and we’re honored to celebrate you as a true Woman of Title.
