As I conclude my second year at the University of California, Berkeley, I am ecstatic to share the various opportunities I have accepted this summer! I am excited to share that I will be a Program Lead at AAMPLIFY for this summer's incoming cohort. I was previously a student under AAMPLIFY in the summer of 2021, where I was first exposed to Ethnic Studies and Asian American Studies. It is truly an honor to return to the space that has sparked my passion for Ethnic Studies and social justice, especially as a lead facilitator for the workshops students will be partaking in. I want to extend my appreciation to my mentors Angela Yip, Ayana Galace, & Sneha Bethi for empowering me to take space and always believing in my capabilities. I am so excited to lead alongside of the leaders who have deeply inspired me. Additionally, I will be conducting research in the Filipino/a community at the Bayanihan Equity Center as the CARE Project Undergraduate Student Researcher! The Community Archival Resilience and Engagement (CARE) amplifies voices of AA elders in the San Francisco Bay Area, and through this grant I have the opportunity to create my own research project based on this experience, and participate in archiving and transcription oral histories. I am immensely grateful to enter these community spaces, and look forward to this summer!
