Banana Magazine is an annual, print-only publication that explores the blurred boundaries of the East and West, and supports voices in contemporary Asian culture.

For Issue 006, I penned a piece on the ways Chinese-Americans are marrying traditional wedding traditions of the East with those of the West, blending tea ceremonies with walks down the aisle.
