Biographical Info:

Christen grew up in West Valley City, Utah and lived there for 26 years. She attended Utah State University and graduated with a degree in interior design. She met her husband while attending the university and worked at the Center for Integrated Biosystems while he finished his bachelor’s degree. Because of the cold weather they headed to Tucson, Arizona where her husband attended the University of Arizona and she worked in her field at California Design Center until they started their family. She is a devoted mother to five children ranging in ages from twelve to twenty years old. They have lived in Sahuarita for almost 18 years and have loved raising their children in the community. Christen has served on multiple PTO boards and volunteered in schools both in the Sahuarita district and outside.

She also believes in making sure more education dollars are directed where they matter most—in the classroom and toward supporting our teachers.
