Christina Soontornvat: My name is Christina Soontornvat, and I'll say it slowly SOON, like it rhymes with moon, TORN, like it rhymes with just born, and VAT, like it rhymes with a pot of pasta. So Soon-torn-vat. And one thing to know about my name is that a lot of people stress that it's long and they might get it wrong, but I like to tell people that I actually pronounce it wrong. It's a Thai last name and I don't have a very strong Thai accent. So I'm not even pronouncing it 100% correctly. So don't worry. As long as you try, I really appreciate it.
