Ms. Medina chose to pursue the practice of law later in her career. Originally, she grew up in Michigan, attended Michigan State University and became a teacher. Many years later, she started her own medical business and ran that company for approximately six years. After personal experience in family law litigation, she decided to return to the classroom, this time as a student and began law school at Barry University School of Law in Orlando. Raising two children, while attending law school, she pursued her passion to become a family law attorney.
