Karina Karbo-Wright (she/they) has been invested in Black studies and film/media work for the past eight years through various scholarly, professional, and community-centered capacities. As a Black queer person who grew up in South Minneapolis, Karina’s passion for Black cultural and media studies only flourished in the African American Studies Department at Northwestern University, where she graduated with honors in 2022. Following graduation and her published thesis on the Black Horror Genre, Karina worked as a DEI professional for two years before attending UC Berkeley. They are excited to be in the bay apart of the historic program, braving a graduate degree with her partner, Mao, and little Corgi, Bea!
