Christa Jones is the host of First in Class and the founder of Teachers With Money — a brand built for the educators America forgot to invite to the money conversation. A 10-year music classroom veteran turned top 1% Teachers Pay Teachers store owner, Christa knows the audience because she lived inside the same financial reality her listeners are still in — and built her way to a different one without leaving education behind. She holds a Master's in Education, has spoken at national music education conferences, and runs TPT Launch Lab, a course for educators building their own digital storefronts. She lives in the U.S. with her husband Grant and daughter Annie.
