Christiane Kosger,
Vice President

I was born in the French Alps in a family with 4 sisters and 2 brothers.  I worked in Geneva, Switzerland as a beautician, got married and divorced.  In June 1977 I came to visit California and traveled all over the State with a girlfriend.  I went to school to learn more English and ended up staying in L.A., working in Beverly Hills.

When I lived in France, I used to ski in the Alps, and while here in L.A., I really missed the mountains.  I joined the Single Ski Club and met Sigrid.  We raced for the ski club and had lots of fun snow skiing, water skiing, bowling, and doing lots of other sports.

In 1987, 10 years later, during a trip to France, one of my sisters convinced me to stay in our home town of Albertville, where the Olympics were going to be held.  Since I always loved music, I decided to open a piano bar, but I actually sold it before the Olympics even started!  Then I moved to the South of France, and later back to Geneva, Switzerland to work for Nina Ricci.

Another 10 years later, I was missing the beautiful weather of California so much, that I decided to start my life all over again.  I quit my job in Geneva and returned to L.A. in 1997.  Soon thereafter I became a Buddhist, joined The Unrecables, found the man of my life, got married in 2002, and became an American citizen in 2008! 

I have a lot of hobbies besides working with The Unrecables.  I like to sculpt and paint, exercise, bike, and do all sorts of other sports.  My big reward is skiing with the beautiful people in The Unrecables.  They're like a second family to me, full of warmth and compassion, and FUN! 

Thank you for all your help and kindness and support.
