Christina Harb was born and raised in Lebanon. In 2006, she survived the Lebanon war and shortly after travelled with her family to Senegal where she completed a year of study in Al-Zahraa College before immigrating to Canada. She is now a proud Canadian Citizen living in Montreal where she speaks and writes three languages: English, French and Arabic. She is currently learning the American Sign Language as she believes that there is no Canadian community without the Deaf Community.
