From an early age, Christina’s (she/her/hers) parents instilled in her the values of fairness and community. She is the youngest daughter, which means she was always cared for, and she feels so strongly that everyone deserves to be held and nurtured by their community.
Christina learned the power of organizing when her pastor brought her to a protest to fight for affordable healthcare. It’s where she witnessed how love for community could translate into action. When she graduated from the University of Michigan in 2013, reproductive rights were being stripped away and insurance bans were being enacted across Michigan. She couldn’t sit back and watch, so she joined the Planned Parenthood of Michigan organizing team and got to work.
Christina moved to Colorado in 2019 and worked as the Program Director at America Votes, then as Political Director at COLOR Latina. After having a sweet baby girl at the end of 2022, Christina was ready to jump back into the work as Deputy Director at New Era Colorado, before becoming Executive Director in February of 2025. She joined the New Era team because she knows that young people and people of color are the most creative and visionary people out there and we have the solutions to make Colorado a more just and fair place. Christina knows that we can create a world where everyone has autonomy and fairness, and that as a community, we fight back and build something better.
