Christina is serving in her 6th year as the School Board Member representing San Antonio ISD District 6, the Edison Area.   For the last year and a half, she has served as the School Board President.    She lives in West Los Angeles Heights with her husband, children, 4 dogs, 2 cats, 6 

chickens, and a bearded dragon.   She has been parenting children in SAISD for 16 years!

Christina is a youth development professional who has a career deeply rooted in supporting families and systems that give students a path to a life filled with choice and opportunity.  She has worked for organizations like Girl Scouts, and Big Brothers Big Sisters, and now is the Executive Director of the Dee Howard Foundation where she is working directly with schools to ensure students have access to careers in Aerospace. 

Christina believes in up-front, honest, and kind conversations about the things that matter to families.  She works hard to ensure that students, families, and staff in SAISD walk onto school campuses and feel welcomed, understood, and motivated to grow.   

Christina has earned a reputation among her colleagues for being fair and a good listener.  Last year she led a  transparent community-driven process to find a superintendent at a time when there were 60 superintendent vacancies across the state.   She and her board voted unanimously for Dr. Aquino on May 2nd, 2022

Christina is seeing re-election because she believes in the power of momentum.  With the confidence of her 6 other elected colleagues and passion to get it right for kids, Christina knows that a disruption in district leadership will only set the district’s progress back.
