About Donna Medina
From her Southern drawl to her favorite movie, Sweet Home Alabama, Donna Medina enjoys life in The South. True to her Southern roots, Nashville is home and she enjoys the all the cool local sights, hot sounds and hip artists of the Nashville area. She has an adventurous spirit that has carried her high into the Rocky Mountains and as far away as Alaska, where she worked on a commercial fishing boat to help pay her way through college. Photography is her passion and she loves capturing places and experiences on film.
As the youngest of four children, Donna learned that hand-me-downs and homemade clothes were in her future unless she had an entrepreneurial financial plan. This experience fueled her personal wellness strategy: have a goal, make a plan, take action and save-save-save, achieve that goal!
Mixing her passions of entrepreneurship, teaching and helping others, Donna is an experienced Financial Wellness Relationship Manager at Regions Bank. Having been with Regions for nearly 30 years, Donna’s previous leadership roles as a Branch Manager and Personal Banker gave her the working knowledge to prepare for providing advice, guidance and education.
