Wara Kibuga

Grace Hopper '23

Hometown: Nairobi, Kenya
Major: Being simultaneously in the loop and out of the loop
Voice Part: Alto
Contact: waruguru.kibuga(at yale.edu)

This alto (more like tenor) succeeds Ryan as a Whiffenpoof for the 2022-2023 academic year. Wara’s haunting tone and lower register are out of this world, just as she often is. Whether it’s abruptly stopping in the middle of her path, ending up at the wrong building for rehearsal, or never knowing the answer to any logistical question, Wara and her glitches are hilarious (scary). We’ll miss you during your Whiffenpoof travels, “Wara.”
