About
Christine believes in a world without soul-crushing meetings; where strategic play is an accepted necessity for imaginative solutions to our most dire injustices; and where we win and get free every single day through our interconnectedness, authenticity, and joy.
As a facilitator, trainer, speaker, and strategist with over 25 years of experience in social change work, Christine has organized and built coalitions across groups and issues, including environmental health and justice, workers' rights, and economic justice. She was Co-Director at Asian Pacific Environmental Network, organizing with immigrants and refugees for a healthy environment and thriving economy for all communities. She also served as Executive Director at the Center for Story-based Strategy, training 2,000+ people and working with 200+ groups to (re)invigorate narrative strategies for social change.
Christine is an alumnus of Rockwood Institute’s Leading from the Inside Out Yearlong Fellowship, one of the nation’s leading executive leadership programs for experienced social change trailblazers. She is one of three recipients of Stanford University Centers for Equity, Community, and Leadership’s 2024 Changemaker Award. She is a 2024-2026 EJ Disrupt Design fellow with the New School Tishman Environment and Design Center.
