This month, all three of us are taking the stage together — and I’m honored to be one of them.

I’ll be joining John Chen, CSP and Ted Ma, CSP for a powerful session hosted by the AAPI Joint Caucus:
“3 Asian Reasons To Be A Successful Speaking Professional.”

If you’re a speaker, leader, or event professional who wants to elevate your voice, expand your cultural intelligence, and stand out in a multicultural marketplace, this conversation will stay with you long after it ends.

Here’s what we’re diving into:

The API Values Behind Our Success
Family honor. Work ethic. Resilience.
The cultural foundations that helped us rise in an industry where Asian representation is still rare.

Storytelling as Legacy
Why culturally grounded stories build deeper emotional connection with global audiences — and how to use that to strengthen your impact.

Cultural Intelligence as a Competitive Edge
How embracing your heritage doesn’t limit you — it amplifies your reach, relatability, and market demand.

This is more than an event.
It’s visibility. It’s advocacy.
It’s a moment for API voices — and allies — to rise together.
