My mother's name is Christine Ainza. She is a 40 year old California native. She was born to a set of Filipino immigrant parents who moved to San Francisco in an effort to experience a better life. Christine is a mother to three children, and currently lives in the bay area. She is currently a licensed nurse practitioner and is soon to start her position. As my mother has continued her life in the bay area, she has experienced diversity, the affects of gentrification, politics, and a plethora of other things.
