Christine - Organizer
Christine is an art librarian, metalsmith, artist, and zine lover.

In the eight years since moving out of her Sweet Home Chicago, she has lived in Austin, NYC, and now Los Angeles. Moving to a city during a pandemic ain't easy, but Christine has found herself at home as an LA Zine Fest organizer. She enjoys riding bikes, playing near or in water, brewing beer, loving on her beautiful house plants, and watching trashy Bravo TV shows.
