Bio

Throughout my college journey, I realized that self-introductions have always been linked with a major, current year, or occupation/title. But I am more than just a relation to an institution. A few things that make up who I am aside from being an undocumented student are that; I was born in the Philippines, I enjoy preparing food for my loved ones, watching movies while pretending to be a film critic, and seeing sunlight when I wake up. Our identities should not be based on ties with institutions, but on who we are as human beings and what we contribute to our world and the people we come across.

For this coming year, I strive to approach advocacy from a radical, anti-capitalist, and decolonial perspective. I look forward to learning from my community and creating conversations on liberation and humanizing our undocumented experiences.
