CHRISTINE ABIBA is a queer Filipina-American, whose commitment to understanding who we are as humans is almost as fervent as their love for dancing. Using oral history as a tool, Christine is interested in combining critical thought and personal storytelling to understand how we relate to the world. As a recent graduate of the University of San Francisco, Christine is passionate about using the sounds of our voices to tell our stories loudly, urgently, with responsibility, and in celebration.
