Christina was born and raised in Santa Fe, the youngest of eight children. Her parents were devout Catholics and probably the main reason that she  nearly became a nun.

After high school, Mrs. Medina moved to Denver, Colorado and then Tallahassee, Florida before deciding to attend the University of New Mexico, where she studied business and received a bachelor’s and master’s degrees from the Anderson Schools of Management.

She spent five years working in administrative positions at The College of Santa Fe and The University of New Mexico before starting a family business with her husband which allowed her to stay home with their three children.

She has recently completed the coursework for  Alternative Teaching License and is very excited to be working at St. Therese Catholic School.
