Christine Pasalo Norland (she/her) is a storyteller from California. She was born in the Bay on Ohlone lands, raised in Los Angeles on Tongva lands, and adults in San Diego on Kumeyaay lands. A daughter of immigrants, her roots extend to the Ilocos region of the so-called Philippines, by way of the Province of Pangasinan.

Christine's work prioritizes people whose identities and experiences aren't typically given space or treated with dimension.

As a contributor to San Diego Magazine under "Christine Pasalo," she profiles artists, creatives, writers, and entrepreneurs from marginalized communities.

Before founding Hello Barkada, she coordinated volunteers as well as produced events, programs, and social media and website content for Comic-Con International and the Comic-Con Museum.
