“My family story illustrates that access to education for one generation leads to financial stability and prosperity for all those who follow. Living in Oakland, I see daily the inequities of how power, wealth and privilege are distributed and the stark realities of the devastating impacts of systemic racism for Black and Brown children and their families. This is what motivates me every day to work for equity, inclusion and justice.”

Christina lives in Oakland, CA, and is an active volunteer in her community including serving on multiple nonprofit charter school boards and supporting a number of strategic initiatives for her synagogue community. When she is not cheering for her kids on the sidelines of a soccer field, basketball court, outdoor track or in the audience of a theatre performance, Christina loves hiking and running with her dog in the local redwood forest, cooking and eating great food, catching up on the latest political news or consuming one of her many favorite podcasts.
